I came back to the HN comments to ask the same thing, when I saw that.
I think this is kinda edgy humor that can work in small, select groups.
But maybe in most contexts in which people will be looking at AI method tech demos (e.g., within a company, or researchers at a university), we're still feeling ongoing effects of multi-generational injustices. In such a context, no one wants to be associating to ideas of women around some infamous '70s porn film. Doing that, and making light of it, seems like it'd rightly bother a lot of people.
When you're focused on a project, and maybe first discussing/showing in one small group, it can be easy to forget there are many additional things going on outside that group, some of which we also want to consider. I've made that mistake multiple times, including with the wrong humor for a context, still cringe when I think of instances of it, and this looks like that to me.
Maybe the developer will see this discussion, and decide to change some things, ASAP. It might still be relatively easy to change. (Maybe doable before Monday business hours, in the time zone of the university mentioned prominently.)
Imagine being so uptight that you see a harmless joke, get mad about it, make many assumptions about a person that you've never met, and not only tell them to change it but give them a deadline to do so.
I am just gonna take this oppurtunity to say: THANK YOU. For your work on the site and the joy it brings. And thank you for not censoring input. Your site is simply the best out there for making characters voice copypastas and such.
