An in-depth police report obtained by 404 Media shows how a school, and then the police, investigated a wave of AI-powered “nudify” apps in a high school.

I kinda doubt porn would be a problem with Sora, just like it's not a problem with Dall-e. The model is locked down in openai's servers and open source model is no where as good yet. Even if there is a comparable downloadable models, it'll be computationally expensive I doubt teens can freely run it.

For now, but with every new tech, hardware efficiency optimization is not too far behind. Especially considering the performance required for training != performance required for running/outputting.

Considering the glacier speeds our government moves, I'd bet on those hardware efficiency optimizations making it out before any significant law gets implemented.

Wait for ASICs. When I started mining bitcoin on dual core cpus I would have never believed a little USB stick would be doing 100x what 30 of those full sized pcs could. The software behind generative models still needs to be fleshed out for hardware to know what direction to go. But a little AI machine that only draws like 50w max but has 256gb of high speed RAM for model storage is not far away. Anyone with $500(or whatever idk) will be able to order a machine off ebay, load it up with whatever models they want, and start generating whatever they want locally.

I don't think it'll be as easy as calculating SHA256 hashes, so ASICs as small as this might never be a thing.

On the other hand, brains do use orders of magnitude less power, so who knows.
