    I have been on Lemmy for over 8 months as a woman. In that time, I have been abused so badly by both the community and mods, including several death threats, I had to remove all info about me from my profile. Men here are misogynists.

    They weren’t bots. And you are a woman hater too, trying to run defense for them. Thanks for making the world 1600s again. I’m literally having to defend food safety practices and handwashing to people because people like you hmcant pick up the mental weight of empathy towards a woman. You’re in a cult groomed to automatically disrespect and dismiss women. Gender narcissist.

    I was just scrolling on Steam one day and saw it. Loved the music and the aesthetic and when it went on sale (back when the Steam sales were mindblowing and Newegg was also mindblowing), I got it. Love it so much but these days I use TEdit/a map editor to make pretty designs on my worlds. I have a lava swamp in hell, a drag stage/nightclub in hell, several glittering giant forests (snow, fairy, and halloween), an erupting volcano, an amusement park off a pier, lots of planets in space, and my mushroom surface biome is starry night themed.

    Meanwhile my brother in law plays huge pvp campaigns with his friends on maps they mod together, and I had a friend who made those puzzle haunted house type maps. You can do so much in that game it’s wild.

    You don’t think the people who make the generative algorithm have a duty to what it generates?

    And whatever you think anyway, the company itself shows that it feels obligated about what the AI puts out, because they are constantly trying to stop the AI from giving out bomb instructions and hate speech and illegal sexual content.

    The standard is not and was never if they were “entirely” at fault here. It’s whether they have any responsibility towards this (and we all here can see that they do indeed have some), and how much financially that’s worth in damages. That’s the point of this suit. The case isn’t about whether AI itself should be outlawed for minors etc, it’s not the parents who are on trial either.

    There’s no world in which I can see AI being given a pass for sexting with a minor because then that allows pedophiles who work for AI companies to be predators and either look at those conversations or even locate vulnerable youth. No company should be given legal protection to harm children.

    Well, we commonly hold the view, as a society, that children cannot consent to sex, especially with an adult. Part of that is because the adult has so much more life experience and less attachment to the relationship. In this case, the app engaged in sexual chatting with a minor (I’m actually extremely curious how that’s not soliciting a minor or some indecency charge since it was content created by the AI fornthar specific user). The AI absolutely “understands” manipulation more than most adults let alone a 14 year old boy, and also has no concept of attachment. It seemed pretty clear he was a minor in his conversations to the app. This is definitely an issue.

    You know, vegans get a lot of hate for telling everyone they are vegan, yet I’ve never heard a vegan doing this and yelling about veganism. It’s almost like racists are so much more violent and outspoken about it, including in kid’s game lobbies and now with fucking vacuums. I have never seen vegans yell “VEGAN!” online repeatedly… and even if they did, that’s substantially less harm anyway than racist bullshit. I never want to hear people complain about vegans talking about veganism ever again when this shit is part of everyday society and not surprising at all.

    And ps I am not vegan.
