Excerpt:
“‘You’re so fucking hot,’ he muttered, kissing along her neck again,” reads one conversation with a “himbo werewolf boyfriend” named Milo Grayson. “I could fill you with my seed again and again.”
It’s the kind of material that’s testing the limits of major AI platforms and forcing them to decide how much they want to police the use of their technology as demand for it explodes. OpenAI, which has been proactive in cracking down on “not safe for work” content, sent a cease-and-desist letter to Janitor AI’s owners in July.
That spurred Janitor AI creator Jan Zoltkowski to decide to build his own large language model. He began pitching investors on the idea, initially with the help of “pharma bro” and convicted felon Martin Shkreli.
Zoltkowski brought along Shkreli, a friend, to several meetings with venture capitalists, but his presence turned some of them off. In his first interview with a media outlet, Zoltkowski told Semafor that Shkreli is no longer involved in the project and he expects to close a funding round soon.
