- autoexec 1y agoExactly. The posted link is unreadable, but other stories on the topic (for example: https://www.cnn.com/2025/04/30/tech/ai-companion-chatbots-unsafe-for-kids-report/index.html https://www.cnn.com/2025/04/30/tech/ai-companion-chatbots-un...) don't give me any reason to think that they are safe for adults. Adults are just slightly/somewhat better able to handle the hazardous material.
- whatshisface 1y agoDo chatbots that pretend to be anime main characters really pose risks to anyone? Really? You all know that there are real things in the world like toxic waste dumps and human trafficking right?
- thot_experiment 1y agoThey pose risks to people in the same way porn, gambling or drugs pose a risk to people. We should as a society generally err on the side of being permissive with this stuff while providing the tools necessary for people to be safe.
