OpenAI Might Let Users ‘Responsibly’ Generate AI Porn and Other NSFW Content
Spicy material might be coming to AI-powered chatbots run by OpenAI, according to a sneaky commentary hidden in a document published by the artificial intelligence pioneer.
The company’s mission statement says it’s dedicated to providing “safe and beneficial” AI, and it has a strict ban on deepfakes that it won’t be amending. But in a document released Wednesday that lays out guidelines for its AI development, the company said it was open, pending further review, to allowing users to generate some NSFW content in the future. That content could include “erotica, extreme gore, slurs, and unsolicited profanity,” according to the document.
While the general guideline for developers states that AI assistants shouldn’t serve prompts asking to generate graphic content, the authors of the document explained that the rule could be changed at some point soon.

How Lollapalooza Changed Rock Music Forever Paramount+During its trailblazing heyday, Lollapalooza provided an unparalleled platform for the alternative. The problem was that by doing so it made the alternative mainstream, which ultimately caused the summer music festival to betray its roots—an inevitable evolution that stands as the most fascinating aspect of Lolla: The Story of Lollapalooza, a nostalgia-fest which understands that all good underground things must either die or become the very thing against which they rebel.Ironically, Michael John Warren’s three-part Paramount+ docuseries (May 21) is somewhat undercut by a similar dynamic, given that its own desire to end on a happy note means that it must ignore the fact that there’s no going home again to recapture the magic that made a sensation truly sensational in the first place. As a result, it’s ultimately more promotion than critique.Lollapalooza launched in 1991 as the brainchild of Perry Farrell, frontman for the paradigm-shifting band Jane’s Addiction, who—along with cofounders Ted Gardner, Don Muller, and Marc Geiger—viewed it a way to channel the spirit of England’s Reading Festival (and its ilk) by bringing together an assorted line-up of artists on a single stage. Designed as a farewell for Jane’s Addiction, which planned to disband once this run of shows was completed, it quickly blossomed into an invigorating new take on an old format. Attendees were offered not just one great performance after another, but a common area filled with local avant-garde artists, social activist booths that sought to raise awareness about guns, the environment, and voting, and additional attractions that made it an immersive day-long experience directly attuned to the era’s youth culture.Read more at The Daily Beast.thedailybeast.com

Truth About the Wild Drug-Taking and Illegal Booze on Ukraine’s Front Lines Photo Illustration by Thomas Levinson/The Daily Beast/GettyKHARKIV, Ukraine—Fighting on the front lines has taken a disastrous turn for the worse after Russia broke through Kharkiv’s line of defense on May 10. Throughout Eastern Ukraine, the brutal repercussions of the six-month-long pause in new U.S. aid led to massive losses on the battlefield. Ukrainian soldiers risking their lives for their country are suffering from physical and psychological trauma. With few ways to decompress from the all-encompassing effects of war, many are turning to drugs and alcohol as a way to cope, which has plunged the military even deeper into darkness.Alcohol is banned in Donbas, the region that has been the epicenter of the war, and all stores and restaurants are forbidden from selling it, but still it makes its way to the front lines via off-rotation soldiers, volunteers, smugglers who charge outlandish prices, or journalists, who bring it in as a peace offering before they begin their interviews.Multiple soldiers who spoke to The Daily Beast claim that some of those defending Ukraine are also abusing illegal substances that they buy through shady online businesses run by the country’s mafia. Some, they say, are drunk at military positions. The men claim that some of their comrades have been so drunk or high that they have killed civilians, soldiers, and animals in a blind rage or while driving under the influence.Read more at The Daily Beast.thedailybeast.com

When Will the Hottest Bridgerton Finally Get His Own Season? Liam Daniel/NetflixDearest gentle reader, I recognize that the laws of attraction can be fickle. The very same features that might make one person quiver beneath her bodice might, in fact, stir nothing but disgust for another. The flirtatious habits that once made a bachelor’s eyes sparkle during one season might bore him to tears in another. Nevertheless, I must ask: What the hell is going on with the hottest brother in Netflix’s Bridgerton? No, I’m not talking about Anthony, the dreamy (now married) Viscount played by Jonathan Bailey. I’m talking about his younger brother, Benedict, whose love life has been a hot, sexy mess for three seasons. Sex appeal might be subjective, but as far as this writer is concerned our boy Benny checks all the right boxes: He’s got gorgeous blue eyes, witty ballroom comments, and a soul-meltingly mischievous smile. Also, he’s the most reliable of his many, many siblings. Too bad Bridgerton can’t seem to decide what to do with him. Next season will likely belong either to Benedict or his younger sister, Eloise, who already made a catastrophic debut on the Ton’s marriage mart in Season 2. But if we really are moving on to Benedict, it’s going to take some real finessing to stick the landing.Read more at The Daily Beast.thedailybeast.com

Mike Schur Knows 'Parks and Rec' Would Have Seemed 'Naive' Post-Trump Photo Illustration by Thomas Levinson/The Daily Beast/Getty/NBCWhen Parks and Recreation first premiered in spring 2009, we were all living in a different world. Wide belts, baker boy hats, and multi-colored tights were all the rage. Everyone was worried about swine flu. And a charismatic politician named Barack Obama had just been inaugurated as our first Black president. For many, it was a time of hope. It’s no wonder Amy Poehler’s unforgettable public servant Leslie Knope and her many, many eccentric neighbors and colleagues stole our hearts.Parks and Rec might’ve faced a shaky reception during its first season on NBC, but it didn’t take long before the long-running sitcom became inescapable. Most of its core cast have become famous in their own right—Adam Scott, Aubrey Plaza, Chris Pratt, Nick Offerman, Aziz Ansari, Rashida Jones, and even smaller players like Ben Schwartz and Jenny Slate. Part of that success might have to do with the show’s organizing mantra, known internally as “The Poehler Rule.” The directive, said co-creator Mike Schur, was always to hire the funniest possible person for any given role—whether it was a bit part or a season-long arc.“It seems so obvious, but a lot of shows don't always do that,” Schur told The Daily Beast’s Obsessed during a recent conversation about the show’s legacy and longevity. “They have some other criterion that they think is more important. It turns out, there's nothing more important for comedy than just being funny.”Read more at The Daily Beast.thedailybeast.com
