AI-generated child sex imagery has every US attorney general calling for action::"A race against time to protect the children of our country from the dangers of AI."

Isn't AI generated better than content sourced from real life? It could actually drive a reduction in child sexual abuse instances due to offenders leveraging alternative sources.

I wonder what it's trained on 🤮

Based on my understanding of how current diffusion models work, you actually don't need to train it on CP. As long as it knows how humans look like without clothes and how children look like even if fully clothed with abayas and stuff, it can make the relation and generate CP when asked to.

Just to be clear, I'm totally against any form of CP and CSAM. Just explaining how the tech works.

I see what you're saying, but ai has yet to offset regular porn production at all. There's no reason I see to think accepting ai cp would do anything but normalize it and make it more accessible, possibly increasing demand for the real stuff.

Also, the ai models need to be trained on something...

One big problem is that it makes enforcement of real abuse impossible. If there is an explosion of that kind of ai generated content and it gets good enough to be confused for the real thing, then real abuse will slip under the radar. It would be impossible to sift through all that content trying to differentiate between ai generated and real if ai generated were ever allowed.

Alternatively it could become an indoctrination pipeline

This feels like a double edged sword.
