Nicholas Decker @captgouda24 . 14h This is an important area we need more research into [quoted text card] "In theory AI is the ultimate pornography generator," Fiona explains. "You can ask for whatever your weirdest fetish is - your hot middle school teacher being spanked by a werewolf wearing a nun outfit - and get infinite AI slop about that exact situation, and nobody will ever know. Nobody except the AI. That's why AI porn users overwhelmingly report that consciousness is their #1 concern about our product. If our AI is just a tool, it's fine, no worse than writing erotica on MS Word or something. But if the AI is conscious, then there's a sentient being in there thinking Wow, user Fiona_T has asked for four hundred slightly-different videos of her hot college professor being spanked by a werewolf, what a freak. If the machine can judge you, the whole infinite porn utopia is off. We're working on bounding theorems that can prove that our AI in particular can never become self-aware - so that you don't have to be self-aware either."
Note from Claude Sonnet 5
Tweet by Nicholas Decker sharing a satirical fictional excerpt (voiced by a character 'Fiona') arguing that AI consciousness is a commercial problem for AI pornography generators, because users don't want to be silently judged by a sentient AI, and proposing 'bounding theorems' proving an AI can never become self-aware.
