Planned with the claimed moral justification of being cautious creating the psychosis sext machine... to focus on productivity.
"No no we're not doing this because the company is a financial black hole with no hope to ever be profitable! No! It's because it's dangerous, yes!!!"
What on earth happened in the last couple of decades that caused USA based Capital to retreat from sex so much? It used to be such an obvious adage that "sex sells", and that businesses would always find ways around prudish cultural taboos to sell it. Nowadays, it seems like the culture is fairly accepting of it, but it's the business world that smothers away any potential sexy stuff.
This in particular seems like a bad example because it's hard to wrangle such a machine into not being a Bad Headline Generator due to all the creeps who want to find ways to make it facilitate their fantasies of abusing children.
Christian fascism is at least one contributing factor. The proles can't have the shiny sex machines - those are reserved for the bourgeois elements to furtively consume.
There is some bourgeois infighting over this though, to be sure.
I feel like this isn't so much prudery as it is another signal that OpenAI is out of dough.
There's always been some portion of the US capitalists that finds sex and violence and all that stuff tacky if not outright immoral. It's just that a lot of those people died and lost money to the people willing to sell it. However tech companies seeking to enter foreign markets might find themselves facing those kinds of people again. Saudis or whoever else may not want to do business if even a siloed portion of it dabbles in "immoral" content. These days you can't really say no because the market returns on the sex sells crowd isn't what it used to be, declining profits and all that. Expansion into new markets is vital, if not more important than continuing to appease domestic markets.
People like to say that media has to be clean in order to be widely accepted, but I don't think that's quite it. It's not appealing to broad US markets that's the problem. It's that the broadest US markets are spent. There is little blood to be squeezed from that stone. Now it's specific domestic markets (whales, b2b) and broad foreign markets. India is the third largest consumer market in the world and growing. If making porn is banned in India, and the US market is saturated in porn, then investing in a porn LLM is probably not a good idea for future growth.
I'm doing lewd VR dev for Xi at the moment, but previously I've long been working on the digital side of sex work, and the big hurdle has always been the payment processors; Banks, credit card companies, etc. Getting money from partakers to the performers has always been an issue. But lately, there's also been more 'think of the children' type groups putting extra pressure on the payment processors who have gotten a bit more lax with the silicon valley folks over the years.

Didnt know Xi was into that kinda stuff 
I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
Love to see it
Honestly I felt pretty confident that this would be the one civilian use case that makes them money.
Name a paradigm shift in technology that was truly a paradigm shift that wasn’t monetized by porn before being monetized by big enterprise
One of these days I'll write a complete guide on this site for anyone on how to download and install the the things they need to get a local AI running for smut generation purposes. The average gaming PC can run them very well.
the problem is that the math still doesn't work out - it just costs too much to generate the horny hallucinations relative to what people would pay
If you see how much erotic artists' commissions are, that's really saying something.
Pivot to enterprise by burning all new consumer product lines
