Also, good luck trying to prove that your film was used to train this network.

You could be compelled to produce your training set during the discovery phase of a lawsuit.

Only if there was any reasonable basis to believe that infringement had taken place. Most countries have some sort of pre-trial hearing before a civil suit to determine if there's merit to the accusation. You're generally not allowed to go on fishing expeditions without a reasonable basis for your claim(s).

Aren't there more important problems to work on than worrying about someone looking at naked people? This is just what we need: more effort spent on censoring and controlling people.

Won't you say that preventing a kid from accidentally viewing porn while searching images with `Safe Search: On` an important problem?

When you said "reversed" I thought about it being a porn-generative neural network. Just enter your favorite keywords and an unique, tailored to your needs scene will be generated just for you!

This has been done, sort of. NSFW: http://deepdickdreams.tumblr.com/

Someone tell H.R. Giger his job has been automated.

Well, considering the other shit they look at and participate in, like video games with people killing each other and blood spattering everywhere, I'd rather they were viewing naked, non-violent people.

As long as what you need is a nightmarish version of the requested scene. What happens here with generating illegal content? If you put a public text->image gan up, and someone uses it to generate child porn, are you responsible? How could you make sure it couldn't?

>How could you make sure it couldn't? I just realized the answer to this is pretty obvious, you could have a network trained to classify child pornography and use it to censor the output. Getting the training set would be an issue, you would probably have to work with law enforcement to do it.

Incidentally, that's almost exactly how generative adversarial networks work.

To generate realistic images, you make two neural networks: one of them (D) takes an image as input and decides whether it's real or whether it's the output of (G). The other (G) takes random noise as input and turns it into an image that will fool the (D) network.

Make them fight until they both get strong, and then use (G) as the final model.

is this just the network or is it a fully trained model? The TechCrunch article suggests the former but the yahoo post the latter...

It's the trained model. You can use it out of the box or refine it to tailor to your environment.

Nice, was on phone only at the time and not able to dig deeper.

Took a couple hours to get it all up and running but indeed it works, and not half badly at that!

This is obviously a way cheaper alternative to https://sightengine.com or http://imagevision.com

Kudos to Yahoo for releasing this!

how could anyone be harmed by you viewing those images? I think the argument is that pedophiles view existing media and it encourages them to do things to real people. The same reason why excessively violent movies are not considered acceptable for children- it's not out of concern for the people in the movies, it's the effect it will have on the person viewing it.

By that logic rape porn should be illegal too. And many movies and video games of realistic violence / gore. And that may be part of the argument, but I think the official position of the justice department is that each time a child porn image is viewed, additional harm is inflicted upon the victim in the image.

Well I think many people would want those things to be illegal too. Censorship laws are not necessarily logically consistent, nor are they black and white. Changing these laws will always be contentious.

And in fact, that's the only thing Bing is good for. It is really good at it, though.

I can assure you this is not by accident.

Microsoft is intentionally doing a poor job at all the non-porn uses of Bing?

No. From what I understand, Google downplays porn searching and that's the only area left for Bing to shine.
