This confuses at least two things. Censorship is about intent and enforcing a world view. If I want a model to generate something for me and it doesn't because of censorship, that's one problem.
If I want a model to generate a fun pic of me at the beach and instead it makes a nude photo, that's completely different.

Is it only censorship when the worldview being enforced is not aligned with yours? A truly uncensored model should accommodate everyone, but society will (and should) absolutely burn down any AI service that accidentally generates nudes from a beach photo of a family that has minors. "Intent" is a human attribute, AI is probabilistic. This abundance of caution by the companies avoiding nudity is unfortunately read as promoting a worldview or pushing an agenda, while it's just risk mitigation.
- jameshart 3y agoYes, but most people share the world view that a state lottery should not generate unsolicited lewd images of their customers. This suggests there is a large, and perfectly reasonable demand for censored models that adhere to broadly ‘SFW’ cultural norms. So why are people upset that commercially available models generally try to cater to that obvious need?
