Im convinced this and the similar age "verification" for Roblox using face pictures is just to help train AI on faces and has little to do with any of the safety bullshit.

Even if the image isnt saved, they can still presumably add it to training data during the verification process before tossing the file. This is pretty standard course for most image processing AI stuff.

    As far as I'm aware the discord mobile version doesn't upload the video. It's all done locally on the device and then what's sent to discord is either "yes they are an adult" or an estimated age figure (could be either).

    On-device processing: Video selfies for facial age estimation never leave a user’s device.

    Of course they could be lying, but sending a video from the device should be quite easy for anyone to prove they're lying no?

    I kinda figured they didn't really need the media itself. Im assuming this all needs some AI shit to work (how else is it realistically going to judge age?), so even if it processes it locally, it can still send some LLM abstracted form of the media back and not technically be lying.

    A human wouldn't be able to reconstruct it into the video again, but ChatGPT will start having dreams about Roblox kids and Discord gooners faces.
