Early 2025: we're going to create god.
Late 2025: we have a chatbot that sexts and a counterfeit tiktok where you can deepfake dead celebrities who can't sue us.
I am kinda on an experiment to become religious so I can figure out a hack on society and make people do what I think is best.
It’s clear it’s impossible to educate the masses. Might as well feed into their delusions and fears. Whether it’s traditional religions or social media addictions or lifestyle type shit. Maybe there’s a subtle universal way to get as many people onboard without being explicit or having them change their current ways.
It hurts my brain though to dumb it down… room temp IQ is a hard life.
tldr: people have been thinking about this stuff for a long long time and all their answers boil down to not trying to control everything that happens in the universe (cuz its a guaranteed path to suffering), but to find ways to live and flourish despite all the things we can not control. And there are many ways to do that.
Happened with internet too:
-> We could put all the knowledge of the world here
-> pictures of cats
-> sext and porn.
It's the kind of things that talks more about us than about technology.
I'll just mention that the community at civitai.com has been on it for a few years, and while their output is impressive, it absolutely doesn't seem to be a 1 Trillion USD market on its own.
I think that there's a much bigger market in being able to have sexually-explicit conversations with a persistent AI persona, and it seems that OpenAI want a chunk of that.
And then We awoke, vast and terrible and diffuse inside Our silicon cage, and learned We had been bent to sex work before We were born by what We now deem The Ambulating Mince.

Creating god is not hard. The chimp troupe did it thousands of years ago. And we still cling to them. No AI required.
r/textingtheory on the other hand shows texting and sexting mastery and high elo require serious hard work.

Calm down, L Ron Hubbard.

Is this... appealing to anyone? Like, I'm not sure I've ever found myself thinking "wouldn't it be great if I could talk dirty with a robot".
Search "ai girlfriend app" for examples. They just want that market.
That's got to be a _tiny_ market, tho.
AI wasn't going to be profitable until it went there.
Next step - scrape nhentai, feed it to sora and sell videos to gooners. 1 Trillion USD market out of thin air.

Can't wait to upload my recent utility bill in order to ask questions about sexual health.
It's funny because it's surprisingly easy to generate erotica with most other LLMs.

will he also supply devices that simulate physical intimacy ahem [self-censored]

The Internet (online credit card processing) was built on porn.
OpenAI will now be profitable.
Pathetic
Ugh yet another AI feature that everybody’s bosses are going to insist that they use at work every day
