Child safety campaigners have raised concerns that they will distract from the real harm that the technology risks creating today. Today, those warnings remain hypothetical. Rishi Sunak will bring up these existential concerns at a White House trip this week. “I’m a father of two children, my children could come to this tool, you can type in terrible stuff and there’s no restriction,” he says.ĪI leaders spent last week warning that the technology they have helped create risked triggering human “extinction” and should be treated as a threat on the same level as nuclear war. Van Ess says that while researching AI software he stumbled across the illegal material on an online forum that included a rolling feed of images created by the software. Openjourney already appears to have been used by paedophiles to create illegal child abuse images, according to Henk Van Ess, a Dutch investigator and researcher. While these viral images were amusing distractions, image-creation AI is also being exploited by those with darker motives. Lifelike images of Pope Francis in a bright white puffer coat and apparent pictures of Donald Trump being arrested have been created and spread across the web this year.
The free software is one of a spate of AI programs to have exploded in use in recent months, allowing users to create computer-generated art in seconds with just a few words of instruction. Browse through the public image library of Openjourney, an artificial intelligence tool used to create computer-generated art, and you will find an impressive collage of hyper-realistic portraits, vivid science-fiction scenes and atmospheric landscapes.
