To say it was “trained on child porn” is just about the most “well, technically….” thing that can be said about anything. Several huge commercial and academic projects scraped billions of images off of the Internet and filtered them best they knew how. SD trained on some set of those and later some researchers managed to identify a small number of images classified as CP were still in there. So, out of the billions of images, was there greater than zero CP images? Yes. Was it intentional/negligent? No. Does it affect the output in any significant way? No. Does it make for internet rage bait and pitchforking? Definitely.
