These clowns will eventually ensure that AI is nerfed into the ground for ordinary people. It's already happening with Fable. Soon we'll get locked into a tiny corner of Opus 4.8 for "safety" while companies and governments will be on Fable 50. Having an AI that can generate scary images is better than the power and wealth differentials we will see with unequal access to an incredibly powerful technology.

While I'm strongly against AI regulation, I'd argue this is significantly more interesting than people who pretend AI is sentient, especially when the prompts used just say the vague phrase "apologies for the content".
No I agree its very interesting, I tried similar prompts before and it generated some very spooky/weird images like this [1]. The problem is using that as an argument to curtail access to AI.

I've managed to get it directly regurgitate an image from training data, which means any number of these images could be real too.

I feel like I've seen that creepy image on 4chan or reddit before.
