Jesus Christ. If someone ever got their hands on this model they could use it to generate new material. The grossest possible AI model to date
A generative model uses the classifier as part of its training. If you generate a picture of pure random noise, then iteratively pick random noise that the classifier says "looks" more like csam, then you can effectively generate images that the classifier says it's 100% certain is csam. Whether or not that looks anything like what a human would consider to be csam depends on other factors but it remains a possibility.
I thought being able to do that was already a thing. This is designed to do the opposite.
I know, I know.. bad actors and such.
...but if simple posession defines who a bad actor is...
The irony of this never ceases to amaze me.
