People give them money because of the moral stance. They are either actively fine with the CSAM or just don't care.

Or realistically people don't view it as CSAM just like how drawing a really realistic image isn't. I don't think it's "good" but it's not CSAM.

  • The reason it makes people uncomfortable is because people have been using it to alter images of real people, and they've done that in a public place (twitter/X), for everyone to see. So it gets in the deepfake realm, which is illegal in many places.

Give me an alternative that isn’t trying to shove left wing ideology down my throat and I’ll use that.

So far, only xAI makes any attempt to be neutral in its answers.

  • Grok is many things but it is not "neutral". https://www.economist.com/briefing/2026/06/25/ai-models-valu...

    • I’m not sure if you’re trying to say that it’s left or right, but it’s perhaps relevant to point out that that article is about the political bias of all major models. And right there in the subhead, they explicitly say that the models have a left bias.

    • Most of us don’t have economist subscriptions.

      Maybe you can just tell us what you mean by not neutral?

      I find Grok to be far more academically honest than the other models. The other models seem to be much more aligned with public opinion over academic consensus especially on topics around economics and biology.

      I find public opinion on these topics to be very group think populist and prefer the academic take that grok provides

  • You probably have it backwards. It's Grok that is shoving right wing ideology down your throat. Research has shown that without specific guidance to otherwise, LLM's tend to be slightly left leaning by default. There are some theories as for why this is so.

  • It would be easier to understand where you're coming from if you could give some examples containing:

    - prompt

    - response

    - why it is wrong / misleading / biased

    Because there are many people online complaining about left-wing bias, then you ask what about and they're like "Trump won in 2020, vaccines cause autism, global warming is a globalist conspiracy", etc. Which is to say, it's not left-wing bias but reality bias.

    Not saying you are one of those people or that there isn't bias! It's just been hard, in my personal experience, to get at it.

    • Out of curiosity, I just asked Grok and learned:

      * Biden won the 2020 election

      * vaccines do not cause autism

      * global warming is not a conspiracy

      In each case it seemed to do a web search so perhaps it is happy to rely on the top results.

  • Yeah mate I'm sure mecha hitler is very unbiased. Funny take. if calling yourself mecha hitler while being willing to create csam js "neutral" to you, you have a frankly terrifying hallucinated worldview wrt politics, lol
