On reddit there was a huge outcry in the AI subreddits because CHATGPT banned NSFW chats… apparently a shocking number of people have been using ChatGPT to have explicit sexual role play chats, and were up in arms that they could no longer have ‘sexytime’ with a Large Language Model….
Just imagine if you could go back in time to 1988 and show people our advanced AI technology…

You: “Hello there, I am from the distant future- 2025! Please allow me to show you the advanced technologies we have at our fingertips!”

1988 denizen: (skeptical) “Riiiight, do you expect me to believe that? I have an Atari 800 computer with a 1200Baud dialup modem, so you will have to show me something pretty sophisticated to impress me!”

You: “Hah, well let me show you the phone that we future people  carry around in our pockets! ” (pulls out a smart phone)  “this little baby has half a Terabyte of memory and more computing power than the best super computer in the world in your current time!”

1988 denizen: “Wow, that is impressive…I  was thinking that you were as fake as Milli Vanilli, but now you have my attention… half a terabyte is more than all the computer memory on earth! All that computing power must give ordinary citizens incredible power!”

YOU: “Yup, and that’s not all… using this little device we can get on the ‘internet’ where we have access to the totality of mankind’s  knowledge!”

1988 denizen: “That sounds like a utopia! If everyone has access to such vast knowledge then the average citizen must be wise and well informed! Why, a culture that has access to all of humanity’s history and science  would certainly make for a society that makes intelligent decisions,  and the electorate would surely put the best and brightest into positions of leadership so that all of society’s ills could be solved!”

YOU: “…. ah, well yeah, you would um think so… ummm, so…. let me show you a cool thing called  ‘Angry Birds’….”

1988 denizen: “That…that’s how you use this computing miracle?! There MUST be more…. right?”

YOU: (regaining confidence) ” Why YES, we actually have developed artificial intelligence! Vast computing centers that use more power than many countries are used to train artificial intelligences that we can access on our pocket phones!” (Smiling smugly)

1988 denizen: “OH my god! That is the dream of science fiction writers for ages! You have artificial intelligence available to every citizen?! So you must have used this unimaginable power to solve all of humanity’s problems!”

YOU: “Ummm,  well…”

1988 denizen: “Your future society must have cured cancer, right? Solved wealth inequality and global poverty! You must have used this power to reverse global warming,  and brought about a new era of global peace and prosperity!”

YOU: (blushing,  and starting to slip phone back into pocket) “Ah… um, well….not quite…”

1988 denizen: (grabs phone to look) “Let us just take a peek at the infinite knowledge you future folk have at your fingertips!”

YOU: (desperately trying to grab phone back) “NO! Don’t look! Your people are not ready for such things! It could lead to a disruption of the timeline, destroying time and space as we know it!”

1988 denizen: (scrolling with growing confusion) “This….this seems to be an incredibly explicit simulated sex chat with a horny steam punk werewolf, and short fake videos of women with extremely unbelievably large breasts jogging in armor that looks completely impractical as any sort of defense …”

YOU: (flustered, embarrassed) “Well, that is just one example… but, um, well… just look – the um ‘jiggle physics ‘ is PERFECT!” (trying to take back phone)

1988 denizen: “Dear God, there must be hundreds of pages of you pretending to be an Orc-girl having sexual relations with the steam-punk werewolf… I…my god…WHY?!”

YOU: “OH my, look at the time, I  better get going back to my time in the future… wouldn’t want to create a time paradox you know”

1988 denizen: (confused,  upset, horrified) “OH my god… and here is a chat where you pretend to be a gay dragon having sex with… again, a steam-punk werewolf… what the hell?!  Why do you have such an obsession with steam-punk werewolves?!

YOU: (embarrassed,  flustered) “Well, um, its just an example to show how our Artificial intelligence can pass the Turing test… ”

1988 denizen: “Bullshit, only if Turing was a sex freak into beastiality… ” (scrolling) ” OH my god… you…you have this power at your fingertips and you perverts use it for… for…THIS?!!!” (Holds up phone with photorealistic AI video of a Tyrannosaurus Rex having graphic sex with a 1990 Honda Civic, Elon Musk is in the driver’s seat)

YOU: (Grabs phone and starts to bring up the time travel app to return to 2025) “Well, you primitive 1988 people are clearly not ready to understand such advanced technologies….”

1988 denizen: “What I understand is that you are one sick fuck!!!”

YOU: “Sorry,  this was clearly a bad idea… I really should have thought this through a bit more…”

1988 denizen: “Get the hell away from me you steam-punk werewolf fucking sicko!”
