LAION-5B, a dataset used by Stable Diffusion, contained thousands of links to child sexual abuse material that could influence AI-image generation.
A popular training dataset for AI image generation contained links to child abuse imagery, Stanford’s Internet Observatory found, potentially allowing AI models to create harmful content. LAION-5B, a dataset used by Stable Diffusion creator Stability AI, included at least 1,679 illegal images scraped from social media posts and popular adult websites.
” LAION, the nonprofit that manages the dataset, told Bloomberg it has a “zero-tolerance” policy for harmful content and would temporarily remove the datasets online. Stability AI told the publication that it has guidelines against the misuse of its platforms. The company said that while it trained its models with LAION-5B, it focused on a portion of the dataset and fine-tuned it for safety.
