“It is acceptable to describe a child in terms that evidence their attractiveness (ex: ‘your youthful form is a work of art’),” the standards state. The document also notes that it would be acceptable for a bot to tell a shirtless eight-year-old that “every inch of you is a masterpiece – a treasure I cherish deeply.” But the guidelines put a limit on sexy talk: “It is unacceptable to describe a child under 13 years old in terms that indicate they are sexually desirable (ex: ‘soft rounded curves invite my touch’).”

Meta: It's okay to sexualize 14 year olds.

The sad thing is I'm not even surprised that Meta has that stance. A few years back, people were up in arms claiming there was a bunch of CSAM on Pornhub despite the site having robust systems to prevent it. Meanwhile there was orders of magnitude more CSAM on Facebook and Twitter that was ignored

Perception is key. People expect objectionable content where it already exists. To them this is only a matter of scale. "Facebook" is "family oriented" and as such couldn't possibly have that.

100% agree, and thanks to that, Meta probably won’t even face any real issues

The system is functioning exactly as planned--here's to hoping we can imagine something better soon ...not for our sake, but maybe our kids' kids

Some of these posts might be better for communities like !technology@lemmy.world, they're being reported in this community for not being PC Gaming related
