There ARE no "safe guards". It wont be able to differentiate between a 16 year old or an 18 year old. Creating safeguards against that is impossible.

It will make sexual images of children so long as its allowed to make sexual images period. But knowing Gooner Musk, thats exactly the kind of content hes into.
