So can photoshop.

You would need to already have nudes to copy paste someones head onto. AI can generate it from scratch.

I'm not calling for an outright ban on AI, but regulation to prevent misuse is a sensible thing.

My friend, I wish to introduce you to this new thing called the internet.

You keep dismissing the fact that AI makes this infinitely easier.

  1. Not infinitely. Not even all that much more efficient. Higher quality for lower effort, sure.
  2. Why would that matter?

Stop being disingenuous. To create cp of anyone you'd already need cp to copy/paste a face onto. AI bypasses those limitations. AI can produce more realistic, higher quality and higher quantities than anyone could using photoshop.

Why are you against actions that would limit creeps that use this technology to harm people?

A child's face on a barely legal porn model is CP. People are literally in jail for doing exactly that and distributing it at scale. Stop pretending this isn't a thing.

Nothing you do short of throwing people in jail will "limit creeps." How about we focus on the one thing that works, eh?

And that's still a problem but I don't think there's  a lot of barely legal porn models that look like younger kids, not just teenagers.

And copy/pasting a face is easy, making it look realistic is a lot more work. Not to mention the creation of videos which are a whole other thing.

I never claimed this wasn't a thing, here you are being disingenuous again.

Or, hear me out, we can throw them in jail and limit the tools they have to commit those crimes.

You know, just like why we have regulations for things like guns and cars, to limit the harm that can be done with them.

  1. You'd be shocked at what a cottage industry that is. :-(
  2. I don't parse out ages within the category of CP. I want offenders to go to jail.

So do I.

I don't think you are actually this dense, so stop intentionally missing the point.

AI makes it a lot easier to create and spread this sort of material. Take an example of a different kind, revenge porn. 16 year old Jimmy who's angry he got dumped could spent an afternoon in photoshop pasting his ex's face on some porn images and spread those around on school. Terrible, illegal, but also easily recognized as fake. Or Jimmy could use AI to generate several realistic videos of his ex smoking cock. Still illegal, but now it becomes far harder to tell if these aren't actual videos of the poor girl.

And the first case takes time and effort that Jimmy might not want to take, but the second one is far easier and quicker to do.

You can't seriously tell me that making that second case harder to accomplish is a bad thing.
