 It was only a matter of time. In this episode:

• OpenAI confirms plans to allow AI-generated porn for “verified adults”
• Sam Altman’s new “treat adults like adults” policy—and the billion-dollar market behind it
• The disturbing rise of AI girlfriends and digital “relationships” replacing real ones
• Why this tech boom isn’t innovation—it’s addiction disguised as progress
• And what it says about a culture more interested in profit than people

Silicon Valley’s latest “feature” could very well become society’s next moral collapse.

Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
The Watchdog on Wall Street podcast explaining the news coming
out of the complex worlds of finance, economics, and politics
and the impact it will have on everyday Americans. Author,
investment banker, consumer advocate, analyst, and trader Chris Markowski, Well,
I knew.

Speaker 2 (00:16):
This one was common AI porn open AI is going
to allow erotica I like how they call it erotica
porn for chat GPT users who verify their age on
the platform. Hmm. Sam Autman said the company will add

(00:39):
support for mature conversations when it launches age gating in December,
and I quote, as we roll out age gating more
fully and as part of our treat adult users like
adults principle, we allow even more like erotica for verify adults. Yeah,

(01:04):
they had already hinted that they were going to allow
developers to create mature that's they're calling it mature chat
GPT apps after it implements the appropriate age verification controls. Yeah,
all right. Again, they're also I've hearn some things here

(01:25):
in regards to making sure that people's mental health is okay.
I don't know. It wasn't a matter of if, it
was a matter of when several years ago. Several years ago,
I was alerted this was actually a kind of like
an AI device that they were selling in Japan, and

(01:49):
I did a commentary on it here and how sad
it was and the fact that men were buying these
little digital It almost looked like a snow globe to
some degree with a girl in it. And this like
AI girlfriend would send you messages over the course of

(02:10):
the day and can't wait for you to come home
and actually creep the hell out of me, quite frankly,
so you look at the second Blade Runner movie kind
of a similar type of concept. I knew that this
was going to happen simply because there's a lot of
money there, and unfortunately, unfortunately, we live in a world

(02:34):
that that's all really well not all, but many people.
That's all they really care about is money. They don't
care about whether or not they're doing the right thing
or wrong thing, or whether or not this is good
for society. They're able to justify things in their minds saying, well,
it's legal and I'm just providing what people want. Is

(02:58):
it good for society? What you're doing? You don't see
any sort of consequences or problems or anything like that
with with coming up with something like this, So people
people talk to these things. I've never talked to AI.
I mean, I use it basically as a search and

(03:20):
people actually have conversations with the thing, I guess on
your phone, talking to it, asking for stuff, whatever it
may be. They had that other device that we talked
about on the podcast. You know, I don't you know
people walking around with an AI necklace like a little
pendit basically listening in to all your conversations over the
course of day, commenting, giving you advice. None of this,

(03:44):
none of this is healthy. None of this is good,
and it's the downward spiral that we've seen. I got
certain states have pushed back, thank god, in regards to
age verification, in regards to all of the pornographic content

(04:06):
that is easily available on the web to kids. Yeah,
you can put devices on their phone, whatever it may be.
Their kids, they can tend to outtech you, and they
can find ways around it. None of this stuff is
any good. And I like how they use words erotica mature.

(04:31):
You're a mature adult. You're you're a stable, mature adult,
and you're you're talking, you're talking to AI. You're talking
dirty to AI. You're okay that that's mature. No, you're
someone that, quite frankly, I feel sorry for. And in

(04:53):
the same way, in the same way, you wouldn't give,
you know, an alcoholic a bottle of j act Daniels,
or a drug addict, you know, a couple of vials
a crack. Why would you do this? Why? Why? Why?
What way, shape, matter of form are you benefiting? Society
