A trial program conducted by Pornhub in collaboration with UK-based child protection organizations aimed to deter users from searching for child abuse material (CSAM) on its website. Whenever CSAM-related terms were searched, a warning message and a chatbot appeared, directing users to support services. The trial reported a significant reduction in CSAM searches and an increase in users seeking help. Despite some limitations in data and complexity, the chatbot showed promise in deterring illegal behavior online. While the trial has ended, the chatbot and warnings remain active on Pornhub’s UK site, with hopes for similar measures across other platforms to create a safer internet environment.
But how does this at all enable anything to worry about?
Normalizes using AI to profile user’s search history in a non-anonimous way. People used to say, if I die delete my browser history. Now they’re glad caretaker AI are keeping an eye on everyone’s search. Soon we won’t be able to take a shit with AI knowing what we had for diner. But hey, THINK OF THE FUCKING CHILDREN
They already have this data, they already used AI over it, they already sell it. Thats their business model.
I agree that’s an issue, but its not specific to this nor is this dependent on this.
