me, when i have to interact with the real world for even one (1) second

Musician and singer, CMAT from the 'Jamie Oliver Petrol Station' music video. CMAT is dressed in an amazing lime green tank top and matching skirt, with a long-sleeve purple top underneath and a wide black belt. She has red hair and is holding a cornetto ice cream in her right hand. Behind her is a row of four plastic chairs, a tall green plant in a white pot and a grey/white background. CMAT has her hand on her hip and is grimacing at the camera is a forced smile. The caption 'OK, don't be a bitch' is over her head.

I know it's obvious, and not a rare opinion but i would be very fucking happy indeed to go a single day, just one (1) day without having to hear about what some billionaire has done/is doing/wants to do

Great stuff. Just fucking great. Actual adult creators are drowning under censorship but the robot is allowed to give you bullshit no-ethics, no-soul erotica. Why not.

Oh good, ChatGPT is getting "erotica for verified adults" later this year

We made ChatGPT pretty restrictive to make sure we were being careful with mental health issues. We realize this made it less useful/enjoyable to many users who had no mental health problems, but given the seriousness of the issue we wanted to get this right.

Now that we have been able to mitigate the serious mental health issues and have new tools, we are going to be able to safely relax the restrictions in most cases.

In a few weeks, we plan to put out a new version of ChatGPT that allows people to have a personality that behaves more like what people liked about 4o (we hope it will be better!). If you want your ChatGPT to respond in a very human-like way, or use a ton of emoji, or act like a friend, ChatGPT should do it (but only if you want it, not because we are usage-maxxing).

In December, as we roll out age-gating more fully and as part of our “treat adult users like adults” principle, we will allow even more, like erotica for verified adults.

the feminine urge to disappear into a vast forest and live in a cosy cabin with blankies, books, unlimited snacks and puppies because *gestures at everything*

I understand the sentiment of "we need to find some way to not all see each other mortal enemies" but it REALLY REALLY needs to be made expressly clear that one side wants to live and be happy and the other side is "that's a line too far and you must suffer and die" and you can't Kumbaya that.

oh no. no. absolutely the fuck not. fuck off.

a bullshit statement from Keira knightley saying she was not aware of a boycott against jk Rowling before taking a job on the new audio series and that she's "sorry" and "we're all going to have to figure out how to live together and we've all got very different opinions"
She can fuck off.
