This article of mine from 2024 at @unicornriot.bsky.social still carries a lot of weight because of the implications of not just training civilians to conduct ICE raids, but also because of how it trains everyday people to become informants and cheerleaders for DHS.
Grok becoming a mass mainstream nudify app with baked-in viral distribution was entirely predictable; the only surprise is how long it took.
So much of the risk scenario for this assumed mainstream AI model creators would limit its output and this would be a targeted harassment/niche model issue.

The measure is meant to protect children from the pressures and risks of social media, a mounting global concern.
LGBT rights are on the chopping block around the world. But the landscape for these rights has also shifted tremendously towards progress in recent decades.
