What is the point of making it "as hard as possible" for people?

This not a game release. It doesn't matter if it's cracked tommorow or in a year. On open source no less, it's going to happen sooner rather than later.

As disgusting as it is but somebody is going to feed CP to an A.I. Model and that's just the reality of it. It's just going to happen one way or another and it's not any of these A.I. Companies fault.

Plausible deniability for governments. It's like DRM for Netflix-like streaming platforms. If they don't add DRM and their content owners' content gets pirated, they could argued in court that Netflix didn't do everything in their power to stop such piracy. So too here for Stability AI, they've said this is their reasoning before.
