    “AI” CSAM detection is over a decade old, and apparently very accurate.

    It’s oldschool machine learning. Image hosts had no choice but to develop them.

    And legal authorities gave them access to datasets to make the detection models.

    I think Lemmy uses it. And it’s indeed implemented on “modern” AI sites like CivitAI, and very effective. If it’s ineffective somewhere (like Grok?) that means the owners are total idiots and should be sued.

      I’m a somewhat old timer on the internet, I know free speech absolutists like Musk way too well. Free speech absolutism often includes “legalizing all recordings of crimes”, and not understanding why non-consensual porn is bad, thus a lot of them support real CSAM. They are also the reason why free speech nowadays has a bad name, as it mainly was for privileged people and their supporters, and often included “negative freedoms”, because criticism might force someone to self-censor, but of course not for them.
