What's their motivation? "Protecting the children" from pictures of boobs?
Doubtful.
Instead, I think the AI companies are looking for ways to more easily distinguish human-made "content" from bot-made content, in order to decrease the amount of generative slop that ends up being fed back into their training data.

Considering the fact that AI based age verification now usually involves taking a head shot and uploading it to the servers of the company, I'm guessing there is an element of facial data collection involved as well.

It’s anticompetitiveness. They want to squash open models, and anyone too small to comply with this. I say this in every thread, but the real AI “battle” is open-weights ML vs OpenAI style tech bro AI. And OpenAI wants precisely no one to realize that.
