Sexbots Are Coming to ChatGPT

So Sam Altman made a pretty long post[1] about how they are trying to bring "character" back into ChatGPT and ends by saying erotica is also up for grabs. Personally, I think that was a pretty roundabout way of saying we are not making enough money as we should be able to and hence we are opening up the p*n floodgates.

Pretty quick turnaround from about 10 weeks back [2]

Some questions:

- So AI safety is not a problem anymore?

- Real name user checks will start on ChatGPT?

- What do we think will be the major changes in society about this.

This isn’t about innovation — it’s about metrics.

Sora 2 is the perfect example: a dopamine machine disguised as progress. It doesn’t solve real problems; it just creates endless engagement loops to inflate “usage” numbers for investors.

The identical logic drives AI erotica — maximize attention, claim it’s “user engagement,” and call it growth. When the core product stops evolving, they start monetizing loneliness.

It’s not about what people need, it’s about what still moves the charts.
