    I largely agree with what you’re saying and there definitely is no easy solution. I’ve never understood why drawings or sex dolls depicting underage people are illegal in some places, as they are victimless crimes.

    The issue with aigen that differentiates it a bit from the above is the fidelity. You can tell a doll or an anime isn’t real, but in a few years from now it’ll b difficult to spot aigen images. This isn’t unique to this scenario though, it’s going to wreck havok on politics, scams, etc, but there is the potential that real CP comes out from hiding and is somewhat shielded by the aigen.

    Of course this is just speculation, I hope it would go the other way around and everyone just jacks off at their computers and CP disappears completely. We need to stop focusing our attention on people with pedophila, get them mental support, and focus on sex offenders who are actually hurting people.

      I’m all for letting people have their dolls, drawings, and AI generated stuff, but yeah… it would become easy for offenders to say “Naw, I snatched that shit off of DALL-E.” and walk in court, so some kind of forensic tool that can tell AI Generated Images from Real Ones would have to be made…

      Actually there’s a lot of reasons we’d want a tool like that that have nothing to do with hypothetical solutions to kiddie diddling.

      Can you imagine how easy extortion would become if you could show an AI pictures of your neighbor next door killing some rando missing person in the area? But every new technology enables crime, until we find out what the proper safeguards are so I’m not too worried about it in the long-term.

        It’s also worth remembering that to make super accurate pictures of children the AI may have been trained on illegal photos (on purpose or not)

        But that’s an issue for the AI creator
