Does anybody at xAI see that there might be a moral problem here? Does anybody there see that other people might see a moral problem here? Or do they think that this is going to be a big enough part of their business that they don't care? Either way, it's appalling.

Nobody knows how to stop jailbreaks so this law means 20 trillion of fines for SpaceXAI.

Or they could decide to wait until they can figure out how to get their product to stop producing kiddie porn to release the product to the general public.

We have guardrails for input/output and nudity classifiers have existed for a long time, can they not run these things?

There's even work to detect harmful content retraining directly from LoRA weights: https://arxiv.org/pdf/2607.25750

In social media, those that can race to the bottom of what is socially acceptable but can get away with it, usually win. If other platforms could do the same without blow back, they would be doing it.

The bottom dollar is all that really matters to them.
