AI is generating CSAM because it was designed by colonial capitalists with the minds of rapists, aka, biased with their logics of imperialist white supremacist capitalist patriarchy (like the Epstein class) to DATA-DRIVE, OPTIMIZE, and “UNIVERSALLY” perform practices they desire.

I have a hypothesis, a possible reason why so many people in #tech are irrationally impressed by the #LLM and why they keep seeming to think they're seeing massive improvement in these things even though the LLM trickery is really a technological dead-end: it's solely because #technology people tend to have an extremely narrow range of human knowledge.

This is especially likely to be true as one scales the ladder of social privilege and corporate hierarchy. The more power a person has, the more likely it is they're using that power to make sure they're surrounded only by people who talk the same way about the same limited range of things. You see an extreme example of this from Elon Musk, easily among the stupidest "geniuses" who has ever blighted the Earth, but he's been able to seal himself away from acknowledging his own stupidity by hiding amid a bubble of courtiers and yes-men, people easily impressed by his technobabble.

And so, #LLMs are capable of surprising these dullards—not only that, LLMs are, by their very nature as unintelligent devices, are given a social latitude to be surprising that is not accorded to ordinary human beings.
