Jack off instruction ai sounds like the perfect name for what they are. Now the validity of the idea is another thing and unless they have some super shady plans like creating a mind controlled army of masturbators to start robbing banks and sending them the money I don't know how this would ever make money.

Maybe sell the data to religious organizations so they know which porn to lobby against?

Just off the top of my head.
