      Don’t do that. This isn’t a witch hunt. Calling out the garbage that is generated content? Great, everyone should. Pointing out the pressing issue of the tech being used to sexualize individuals and minors online? Fantastic!

      But calling all users of the tech pedophiles? That’s just gross, and is a shitty scare mongering tactic - a sad, empty attempt to make people too afraid to argue back. There are already plenty of real issues with llms and the like. Fabricating made up ones devalues your own words and the words of everyone else that speaks up.

        It’s not a witch-hunt when the witch is publicly saying csam isn’t a problem, it’s just calling a spade a spade.

          No, it’s not. You’re both just using the word as a cudgel, as a weapon to scare others and pretend you’re righteous and beyond any further debate. It’s an insult to public discourse and to anyone who spends time arguing the actual issues with this tech.

          Yeah, you don’t get to split-hairs here. A “microscopic sliver” is functionally none. And if that’s not what you meant to say, then you shouldn’t have said it. Painting entire groups of people you disagree with as pedophiles is not something to be done lightly, or at all really.

      My apologies, didn’t realise the comm I’m in. You are correct. All GenAI users consume child porn. All lemmyNSFW users whine about CSAM being a problem anywhere. There is no CSAM on the internet, you are not on a CSAM train as the post would imply.

      You peeps have fun.
