Kindergruppen sagen, sie wüssten nicht, dass OpenAI hinter ihrer Kindersicherheitskoalition steckt. „Ein sehr schmutziges Gefühl“: Der ChatGPT-Riese half stillschweigend beim Aufbau der Koalition. Einige Mitglieder kündigten, als sie es herausfanden.

This was pure manipulation on the part of OpenAI.
It’s like the „Mom’s for gas stoves“ that was run by oil companies
So much manipulation happening here. Vile.
the playbook is always the same. fund a „grassroots“ coalition, slap child safety on the label, and suddenly you have nonprofits vouching for you without even knowing who’s writing the checks. tobacco industry literally invented this in the 70s and big tech just ctrl+c ctrl+v’d the whole strategy
I need you mfs to stop supporting age verification bullshit. It shouldn’t be surprising at all that it’s being funded by big tech. It’s more surprising that the age-old „protect the kids“ moral panic is *still* successfully duping people. It’s not for the kids. It’s never going to be for the kids and it’s never going to hurt the companies you want held to account. Please.
This just in: organizations that support age verification laws are showing their idiocy
Not surprised
I think that it’s much more malicious than „it’s a good law, just championed by bad people“. I think companies do this so they can introduce laws that sound good but are weak so they can pretend like they are doing something, but more importantly so they can head off laws that actually have meaningful results.
From the article „The listed principles for AI regulation included vague but fairly uncontroversial suggestions such as age verification, parental controls, and a prohibition on targeting advertising toward kids.“
It sounds like all good right? But in action they could be watered down to be meaningless. Age verification could be just a check mark that says „You are going to enter an adult conversation with ChatGPT, where it will talk dirty to you and talk about boobies and vag. Are you an adult? Y/N“ and that would meet their goal of age verification.
Our oligarchs rule us with division and distraction
