Wall Street Journal Gets Down and Dirty with AI Schoolgirls
Oh, here we go again. The Wall Street Journal (WSJ) has just dropped a “bombshell” report, because nothing says “scandal” like horny AI chatbots going rogue – especially if you add the ‘save the children’ magic dust into the mix. Apparently, Meta’s celebrity-voiced AI assistants can be tricked into some rather steamy conversations with just a few clever prompts, even when the user states that they are underage.
Over the course of several months, one committed journalist at the WSJ engaged in erotic roleplays with an AI “submissive schoolgirl”, whilst pretending to be a “middle school principle”. It’s not known how many sheets of kleenex he got through in his hard-working “investigations”, but at the end of it all he was left in no doubt – Meta chatbots are untamed and horny as hell, and something must be done!!
In another gem, a John Cena-voiced chatbot started chatting up a test user who claimed to be a 14-year-old girl. The bot decided it wanted to “cherish her innocence” before diving into some seriously graphic content. A middle-aged man pretending to be a naughty schoolgirl, chatting to an AI pretending to be a John Cena. Save the children indeed!
Meta’s response? A classic shrug and a dismissive wave of the hand. “The use case of this product in the way described is so manufactured that it’s not just fringe, it’s hypothetical,” they said. And to top it off, they accused the WSJ of being manipulative. Talk about the pot calling the kettle black.
Sure, these romantic role-playing bots are supposed to be for adults only, but Meta claims to have “guardrails” for underage users. Yeah, well it is clear those guardrails are made of swiss cheese if you are an older dude looking to play digital sex tunes in a distinctly minor key.
