So basically we had a bad apple that was probably already defederated by everyone else.
It's Pawoo, Pixiv's (formerly) own instance, which is infamous for this kind of content, and those are still "just drawings" (unless some artists are using illegal real-life references).
They're using Generative AI to create photo realistic renditions now, and causing everyone who finds out about it to have a moral crisis.
Well, that's a very different and way more concerning thing...
... I mean ... idk ... If the argument is that the drawn version doesn't harm kids and gives pedos an outlet, is a ai generated version any different?
imo, the dicey part of the matter is "what amount of the AI's dataset is made up of actual images of children"
Shit that is a good point.
