The main sign that AI is really a failure is the lack of AI porn. Where is the porn we were promised?

If making good content was possible with AI, that industry would have done it already.

    its largely sitting in rp thingies and such.

    currently, training a video gen model on corn is simply too expensive, and tech companies like openai and alibaba would rather not train on it, as it costs them extra thousands to train a type of video which is restricted to be generated anyway.

    data curation has become one of the pillows improving models performance lately.

    If you're curious, just give a plain web search for "AI porn". You'll get all kinds of hits.

    I mean, seriously, have you not heard of any of it?

    • LLMs can write erotica
    • There was all kinds of news about DeepFake nudes
    • AI-based image generation tools can produce porn in realistic or hentai styles
    • There's also AI-based video generation, and all kinds of materials for it to have been trained on.

    I'm surprised that you're making this comment, and I'm surprised so many people upvoted it...
