Roblox confirms no adult content used in AI training after scraping Open3DLab data

Roblox says an AI agent failed to operate 'as intended' when it mass-downloaded adult content from Open3DLab, Smutlab, and SFMLab.

Roblox Corporation has confirmed allegations posted by 3D asset side Open3DLab that one of its AI agents downloaded 145.5 GB of content like art assets and 3d models, including adult content hosted on its subsidiary sites Smutlab and SFMLab. The company is now letting the public know that the AI agent has been decommissioned, and the gathered data will not be used in training any AI models.

A company spokesperson confirmed the news in a statement provided to GameDeveloper.com. The spokesperson affirmed claims made by Open3D admin "Salaryman" that a Roblox researcher built an AI agent to "collect publicly available 3D assets," which "mistakenly" scraped content from Open3DLab. The bot was "failing to operate as intended," they said.

"The agent was decommissioned, and the data was not used for any purpose, including training any AI models. We are strengthening safeguards for how agents like this are built and reviewed, and will continue to do so as the agentic landscape evolves."

Developers and game industry professionals interested in the technical process employed by the Roblox bot will find much to chew over in Salaryman's post. " These files were all created and uploaded by Open3DLab users, which include 3D artists and creatives using Valve's Source Filmmaker software, many of whom use Smutbase and SFMLab as trusted resources for adult content.
