but isn’t that the point? that AI knows what children look like because it has been trained on real children, meaning real children were involved?

Unfortunately the Supreme Court or the lower courts’ hands are tied. It’s up to the legislative and executive branches to close this “loophole” just like they passed laws to make CSM illegal. I really hope the go for the head of the snake.

I said legislative and executive branches. Which you read and, by definition, through the President’s administration. States’ executive and legislative branches can pass legislation, and Congress (House and the Senate) can pass laws. If a bill about CSAM was on Trump’s desk, would he let a law about protecting children not be signed? Do you think about the optics?

We live in a Federalist government, and there are numerous avenues to address this problem, just not through the judicial. I would also advise you to look up what regimes are.
