| Because as with the internet 99% of the usage won’t be for education, work, personal development, what have you. It will be for effing kitten videos and memes. |

| Are the posters of effing kitten videos a customer base with a significant LTV? (The obvious well-paying market would be erotic / furry / porn, but it's too toxic to publicly touch, at least in the US.) |

| ▲ | piskov 11 hours ago | parent | next [-] | | Openrouter stats already mention 52% usage is roleplay. As for photo/video very large number of people use it for friends and family (turn photo into creative/funny video, change photo, etc.). Also I would think photoshop-like features are coming more and more in chatgpt and alike. For example, “take my poorly-lit photo and make it look professional and suitable for linkedin profile” | |

Sure, there are likely some who would use it regardless, but I expect the use of genAI to generate furry porn to be at least as toxic within that community as the use of genAI to generate furry porn outside of that community. |
