You know, I'd really rather not have an AI model trained on detecting people stripping naked on any of my webcam-enabled devices.
mikece•5h ago
So... use Signal or Telegram?
bigyabai•5h ago
Will that delete the model? Can my consent be used to stop this functionality from being downloaded, besides buying a new phone?
NewJazz•2h ago
Yeah makes you wonder how they are training these kinds of models... And who is doing that work.

Like the social media moderators who get exposed to mountains of horrifying content.

bigyarnn•5h ago
Can we have a European version, that freezes if someone shows violence? Nobody cares about nudity.
1over137•3h ago
This was my first thought too. US culture is weirdly prudish about nudity. I guess it comes from their flavour of Christianity? That’s fine of course, but they foist this on the whole world. ;(
krapp•3h ago
Which is weird when you consider an entire book of the Bible is a poem extolling the qualities and virtues of King Solomon's... er... "royal staff."

Fundamentalism from a backlash to English Anglicism historically.

Jefferey Toobin would have loved this feature during COVID.
lofaszvanitt•4h ago
Maybe it's time to start a movement, that educates people to ditch the control/oppressive device from their back pockets and be satisfied with a more modest but open system in every respect. All the top tier phones look and feel the same. Everything is locked down, you can't customize anything, everything needs a payment. Ridiculous.
TexanFeller•4h ago
At most I could accept if this were a feature for children’s accounts that parents could choose to enable. I’m not sure I’m Ok with even that though because slippery slopes quite often start with “ think of the children”.

Audio/Video/Chat services should probably be demanded(maybe even required by law) to be dumb pipes that never filter ANYTHING.

No one cares about the children/elderly/disabled/etc until they want to argue over something

> In other words, everything happens on-device so Apple has no idea about the contents of your call.

Of course. And we have to trust that it is true and won't change depending on country and/or target.

msgodel•1h ago
Don't know why this is downvoted. It's pretty difficult to even get a hold of the binary artifacts, much less the source, to verify.

For all you know they could very well be sending back embeddings or have it trigger recording.

deadfoxygrandpa•47m ago
just dont grant internet access to face time and then you can be sure they arent uploading any recordings to their own servers
msgodel•42s ago
lol It's been a while but I was under the impression Face Time was a VOIP app. That's a little useless without internet.

That's like a third of the value proposition for FaceTiming with an S/O.

So, .. no application for it in the remote consult medical domain then.
m463•52m ago
I feel this is a situation where half the world is unaware of a specific problem.

And the other half probably doesn't tell them.

bigyabai•40m ago
Is the problem in question consent over how my phone works?

We're fast approaching the "yes it's bad for privacy but think of the kids" threshold between this and client-side scanning. Both can be used as instruments of blackmail from a sufficiently motivated threat actor.
