Conservatism is inappropriate in a modern civilization. If conservatives aren’t gleefully endangering everyone around them during a deadly pandemic, they are mocking, assaulting or murdering those who object.

There is no such thing as a “good conservative”. Conservatism is a plague and should be outlawed entirely.

Conservatives before the pandemic:

Socialized medicine is bad, you get what you pay for!

Conservatives after the pandemic:

You can’t trust the pharmaceutical industry, they just want to make profits!

explodicle ,

The main reason to not outlaw it is that conservatives are currently in charge of the laws, and will redefine “conservative” to mean “not fascist”.

HowMany ,

What are they conserving? Quit calling them that. They haven’t conserved anything. How about simply calling them “criminals” - which they are. The criminal party. How about that? Their new logo can be a cartoon burglar, you know, the one with the mask over the eyes and unshaven? Yeah - like this guy. ish.

There’s an appropriate spirit animal. Don’t vote republican… because they’re not conserving anything and they’re robbing the country blind.

Seems a bit harsh for “please put on your mask”.

Murder seems a bit harsh for pretty much anything

I don’t know, I don’t think “eye for an eye” is completely out of place here.

I doubt that the masks had anything to do with it. If someone reacts so violently to being asked to adjust their mask, they will react violently to practically anything.

    I admire your positive thinking, but it may also provide plausible deniability for legitimate CSAM, by your own logic. Either way, I see this being used to bully, blackmail, or worse. It’s not that we are going to stop AI development, nor that we should. Perhaps as it improves (remember, right now it’s the worst it will ever be), we can teach AI to recognize when it may be used for purposes like creating realistic CSAM or other such material, and have it log or report such uses.

    I honestly don’t know the solution, but I don’t see the world ever getting “ho-hum, it’s all fake anyway” about minor involved pornography.

    cactusupyourbutt ,

    it will do neither. i generated pictures can usually be identified by eye alone, and some companies are starting to add an invisible watermark to their output

    You guys are working with the idea that companies and organizations will be creating these AI tools. They will be bound by laws but random people of groups of people will not. It will only get worse.

    Yeah, it might all work out after an undetermined time of unimaginable suffering on multiple fronts.

    Methinks you might want to give it space to breathe from the child porn scandal before you attempt a positive spin on truth becoming irrelevant in the future.

    CeruleanRuin ,

    But the overall impact of not being able to trust any image will not be positive. We already have widespread distrust of everything in the media that leads to people forming cults around their beliefs and strong personalities that are immune to facts. That will only get worse as photos and videos can no longer be trusted as evidence of anything real.

    They had the one ability not to harm anyone with CSAM and they try to generate real people… Truly vile

    I've said for the longest time, the world needs wiping. A hard reset.

    Technology comes to the masses and shit like this is some people's first thought? Constantly figuring out how to better kill each other, humiliate, bully. It blows my mind, even at the old old age of 34 how utterly deprived people can be.

    Tell a family member you love them today, give them a hug - create your own net positive.

    The world needs building. A shared vision. People empowering and protecting each other. It is hard, but we must try.

    @Beardedsausag3@kbin.social avatar

    This is the more reasonable and realistic approach, I'm just not even sure how that'd come about. Although I feel education is an important factor from a young age on the do's and don'ts - tools? Maybe need to be developed that somehow doesn't intrude on the right to privacy.

    It's concerning, after reading this this morning then speaking to some of the lads about it, me Mrs - even with me Mum when I was out for a walk with her.. It's leaving people feel hella vulnerable. Nothing to stop anyone right now taking a pic of any one us and slapping it on some weird shit, some incriminating shit, racial hatred shit. Anything.

    It's ticking time bomb imo

    Pyr_Pressure , to news in AI-generated naked child images shock Spanish town of Almendralejo

    For an AI generator to make convincing photos of CSAM, wouldn’t it have had to have access to real CSAM to “learn” how to make it?

    Wouldn’t the creators of the generator then have to have had access to it / download it or whatever they do when they feed material to the algorithm?

    drislands ,

    Not necessarily. I’m only speculating, which I don’t relish, but I imagine the service isn’t explicitly designed with CSAM as the intended result – if I’m reading it right, it’s billed as “upload picture of clothed person X and received ‘naked’ picture of same person”, and is almost certainly trained on appropriately-aged pornographic material.

    I don’t know the inner workings of technology like this, and I certainly don’t intend to critique the images talked about in this article, but the resulting picture doesn’t have to be an accurate representation of a minor’s body to be distressing to the people involved.

    lud ,

    Nah, I don’t think so. I haven’t tried and I won’t try, but these images are probably just made with inpainting with generic nsfw prompts.

    If the AI was trained on enough nudity it would probably just scale it down to child size or whatever.

    I can’t imagine there must be a huge difference in appearance.

    I am just guessing though.

    autotldr Bot , to worldnews in British Museum asks public and experts to help recover stolen artefacts

    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    The British Museum has asked the public to help identify and recover ancient artefacts that have gone missing from its collection.

    Last month a member of staff was sacked and police launched an investigation after around 2,000 treasures were reported “missing, stolen or damaged” over a “significant” period of time.

    In an attempt to recover the rest, it has put details and images of the types of objects that are missing on its website.

    As well as classical Greek and Roman gems, there are rings, earrings and other pieces of jewellery - some dating back to the late Bronze Age.

    The museum also said said it would work alongside an international panel of experts to identify and recover the items, and had placed them on the Art Loss Register.

    James Ratcliffe, director of recoveries at the Art Loss Register, said the museum had “carefully balanced the need to provide information to the public to assist the recovery efforts with the fact that providing too much detail risks playing into the hands of those who might act in bad faith”.
