What companies? Only grok had serious problems (which are fixed by now, supposedly). Rest of the companies models cannot generate such stuff, this is all done with custom models by individuals.

    This is really important for people to understand.

    Powerful open weight models are already out there. Anyone can download them and run them. There is no possibility for government control of AI content without North Korean style internet controls.

    Politicians and corporations will absolutely start trying to push for more controls. They will tell you to "think of the children" and they will use this to take power for themselves, knowing full-well that they can't actually meaningfully prevent this from happening. We need people to understand that the push for control here has nothing to do with morality or protecting anyone.
