Except this leak confirms them in this case hence the subject of this thread?

And if you find it, don't judge what it is or worry what others might think - or even necessarily tell anyone. Sometimes the most motivating things are highly personal, as with the OP; a significant part of their childhood.
As comparison the GGML port of Whisper (OpenAI's equivalent), runs in the browser, via WASM: https://whisper.ggerganov.com/
It claims to be aimed at "curious people over the age of 14", but goes from "the period at the end of this sentence is a million nanometers", straight to diagrams filled with nothing but technical jargon.
The text has various unexplained terms throughout, that are mentioned as if the reader already knows them: "PDK", "stackup", "layer", "polyres", "polysilicon" and "gate of a MOSFET" for example.
"Mask" is explained, and it's a good explanation. It'd be great if that attention was given to other domain-specific terms someone coming to this new likely doesn't know, or maybe has seen but doesn't know well or in this context.

Why wouldn't they do that?
It's only bad for everyone that instead there's this total shitshow litany of garbage presented to the user instead. It's bad for customers, bad for the app suppliers, and bad for Apple themselves. Totally bizarre.
There are likely a good many similarly-distinct pieces of technology you are excited by, or you wouldn't be here.
Reminded me of the style of a book on machine learning. If anyone liked this explanation, you may appreciate this book:

I don't know anything about that site other than it was pretty well-written and had sources and names and times and places. You're welcome.
The McMinn County Board of Education voted to remove the graphic novel Maus from McMinn County Schools because of its unnecessary use of profanity and nudity and its depiction of violence and suicide. Taken as a whole, the Board felt this work was simply too adult-oriented for use in our schools.
We do not diminish the value of Maus as an impactful and meaningful piece of literature, nor do we dispute the importance of teaching our children the historical and moral lessons and realities of the Holocaust. To the contrary, we have asked our administrators to find other works that accomplish the same educational goals in a more age-appropriate fashion. The atrocities of the Holocaust were shameful beyond description, and we all have an obligation to ensure that younger generations learn of its horrors to ensure that such an event is never repeated.
Though I would very much agree that censorship of any kind is a delicate matter and can easily become heavy-handed in exactly the way you describe.
I actually don't know anything about that source. It came up in a search and appeared to summarise and provide source-links to cases I'd previously seen. It wasn't as sensationalist as others so seemed worth including.
Glad you appreciated it. I wasn't able to find something that specifically summarised what I've seen from the US, but it is out there and was as concerning. Maybe it's a bit "boy who cried wolf" with the right in the US on this.
That is, while there's often puritanical hyperbole that's easier for left to switch off to, the right appear to have a valid point most people either side would agree to here, but it's maybe not represented well in mainstream left media.
The subject being discussed is this, when the person stated:
> This is how you get rid of hypersensitivity after all, by exposure to whatever it is you're overly sensitive to. Avoiding exposure only increases the shock the next time you get exposed.
They appear unaware that there are types of hypersensitivity that do not get better when exposed repeatedly and in fact become much worse and potentially life-threatening.
The person goes on to appear to consider themselves a member of such a group whilst simultaneously claiming they are unaffected in the same way as other members of the group.
But, the group being discussed, as I see it, is delineated precisely by being affected in that way.
To resolve this contradiction, I'm attempting to precisely describe the group, their characteristics, the terms being used and what they mean to me at least, which appears to me to be information that person may be missing.
Regardless, exactly which "books" presenters with names such as "Eric Big Clit", "Flowjob" and "rainbow dildo butt monkey" choose to present to children - as young as four - strikes me as somewhat beside the point:

Those not wishing to face the difficult and nuanced reality of these debates equate these in appeals to emotions rather than citing specificity. Not interested in any discussion that employs that technique.
What books? Why? What "health" measures? Why? What were the arguments for and against? Side-stepping these questions is side-stepping the process correct outcomes depend on.
Why would someone want to do that?
It's not a perfect system, and remains susceptible to corruption from extremism, but it's historically superior to anything else that's been tried. Presumably this is a reality you've since enjoyed.
Key - for minorities as much as anyone else - is ensuring principles of free speech are upheld. The "woke" crowd have generally promoted censorship ("cancelling"), and therefore are incompatible with protecting their own rights.
As we're seeing here, with exactly this.
