> harmful stereotypes and representations

So we can't have this model because of ... the mere possibility of stereotypes? With this logic, humans should all die, as we certainly encode some nasty stereotypes in our brains.

This level of dishonesty to not give back to the community is not unexpected at this point, but seeing apologists here is.

As Sadhguru said, the human experience comes from within.

Which means that it is always you that decides is you'll be offended or not.

Not to mention the weirdness that random strangers on the internet feel the need to protect me, another random stranger on the internet, from being offended. Not to mention that you don't need to be a genius to find pornography, racism and pretty much anything on the internet...

I'm really quite worried by the direction it's all going at. More and more the internet is being censored and filtered. Where are the times of IRC where a single refresh erased everything that was said~

I have a friend who used to have an abuser who talked like that. Every time she said or did something that hurt him, it was his fault for feeling that way, and a real man wouldn't have any problem with it.

I'm all for mindfulness and metacognition as valuable skills. They helped me realize that a bad grade every now and then didn't mean I was lazy, stupid, and didn't belong in college.

But this argument that people should indiscriminately suppress emotional pain is dangerous. It entails that people ought to tolerate abuse and misuse of themselves and of other people. And that's wrong.

I think there is a huge difference between somebody willingly mistreating another person and that person taking offence to that, versus a company releasing an AI tool with absolutely no ill-intent, and then someone else making decisions as to what _I_ am allowed to see.

I think it's more that they don't want people creating NSFW images of copyrighted material. How do you even begin to protect against that litigation?

Should we ban Photoshop? It's a leap in logic but not very different.
