You’ve gone home with a Tinder date, and things are escalating. You don’t really know or trust this guy, and you don’t want to contract an STI, so… what now?
A company called Calmara wants you to snap a photo of the guy’s penis, then use its AI to tell you if your partner is “clear” or not.
Let’s get something out of the way right off the bat: You should not take a picture of anyone’s genitals and scan it with an AI tool to decide whether or not you should have sex.
I’m pretty sure that gonorrhea, chlamydia, and HIV don’t generally have visible symptoms. Just use a condom.
What part of AI don’t you understand?
If you can’t trust AI medical startups operating out of Silicon Valley with pictures of your genitals, well…THEN WHO CAN YOU TRUST?
I mean, to be fair, it also looks like they might be partially financially backed by a foreign authoritarian regime, and they usually have pretty good AI models…so…
We are reaching the phase where ai is de facto a magic spell to be cast on reality, and ai startup are hyping this up. That and taking pics of stranger’s genitals is a dick move.
Yes, I agree. AI is magic and everyone should submit pictures of their genitals.
Hell, I’ve started converting my dick pics into ASCII art and having ChatGPT diagnose me for STI’s.
AI BABY WOOOOOO HOOOOO
I’m just happy we moved to an AI bubble to raise stock prices instead of continuing to lay off essential personnel to do it

Fair enough. Unzip.
Man, what about false positives? Ruined date night at minimum, possibly ruined reputation, relationships.
Sorry, we put a picture of your junk into this box. We don’t know what’s in it, or what it does with the picture, but it says you have chlamydia, and I think the box looks trustworthy. Here’s your divorce papers.
If you get the premium ultra plan you will always report as negative on a scan.
Or if still concerned after the fact, a doctor. Despite what your GOP neighbor might tell you, they’re not all evil quacks and don’t typically take pictures of your stuff either.
