I apologize in advance for the lack of links or sources. You’ll have to trust me on this story.

There exist closed forums where adult-industry webmasters talk business. I hang out on more than one of them. I can’t quote or copy those conversations here, obviously. But there’s a thread right now where the topic of discussion is using AI tools to, essentially, let sexy AI avatars read dirty stories to paying subscribers.

Basically the idea is: Scheherazade as a service. For a thousand and one nights — or for as long as you pay your subscription fee, anyway — the pretty topless houri of your dreams will read you a dirty story from whatever library of smut the service has managed to license or (I suspect) generate with some other AI tool.

And here’s the problem: the webmasters who want to do this aren’t the kind of high-level wizards of technology who can develop these AI tools themselves. They want to license them. And they keep getting titty-blocked by the pornocalypse. Long story short, when they test drive these tools on their smutty stories, they run afoul of dirty words filters. Because as I’ve mentioned before, AI tools are funded by venture capital, and thus come with pornocalypse baked in.

All the tools they try out seem to be OK with softcore erotica. But any time it gets “too kinky” (I haven’t seen specifics) or “too hardcore”, these entrepreneurs discover that the tools they want to use balk at specific stop-words in the erotica inputs. The script fails. Too filthy for venture capital. Sorry, try again!

The pornocalypse comes for us all.
