When I said a "general purpose model that knows what children look like" I didn't mean the classification model from the article. I meant a normal, general purpose image generation model. When I said "that knows what children look like" I mean part of its training set is on children, because it's sort of trained a little on everything. When I said "pornographic model" I mean a model trained exclusively on NSFW content (and not including any CSAM, but that may be generous depending on how much care was out into the model's creation).
