According to the news site 404media, Salad uses the resources obtained in this way to generate AI pornography. Users can opt out of pornography generation by changing the settings, and in some countries, it is opted out from the start for legal reasons.
When asked if opting out of pornography would mean lower payouts, Salad said, 'We may see a small reduction in revenue if there's high demand for certain adult content workloads, but we don't plan on making it the core of our business model.'
According to 404media, one of Salad's clients is Civitai, which has introduced a system to offer rewards for AI models of specific individuals.

In response to an interview with 404media, Civitai said, 'Salad is responsible for some of the image generation depending on the time of day. We will expand the service together with Salad depending on the demand.' This suggests that much of Salad's resources were being used to generate images for Civitai.
