> Then Kunz started noticing strange things. She seemed to forget subjects they’d already discussed – a recipe for overnight oats, a picture of her own cats. He started asking questions.

I know a developer who wrote the software for an SMS call center about 2 decades ago - it would keep a log of all texts sent, so any agent could pretend to be any of the completely fake profiles of women looking for a relationship.

At 1-2€ per SMS, this was a quite profitable business for the call center, the dev and the telcos, who took about 50% and had no interest in shutting this down.

Sounds like a nice application for an LLM, lol.

You can use local uncensored LLM models for this.

There are multiple services offering "virtual girlfriends" etc for a monthly fee.

Sam Altman even said he want it to do adult content, as long as it is safe. So yes, that is a stated goal of theirs.

"we really want to get to a place where we can enable NSFW stuff (e.g. text erotica, gore) for your personal use in most cases but not do stuff like make deepfakes."

This is unexpected. With popular AIs being extremely SFW, seeing one with an intent to go NSFW is a surprise.
