In this case there are several crimes, but in the other one mentioned about a korean there is nothing, only possession of generated content arguing that there is high realism (someone could say the same even of a sketch). To imprison for acts that have neither victims nor any harm either directly or indirectly, is more aberrant than possessing that.
PS: I'm just talking about legality and rights, I know it's controversial and I'm sure someone has something to argue against it, but if you're going to accuse me of being a pedo just get lost you moron.
No it isn't.
No, it's child porn.
Can't imagine why.
You realise the AI is being trained on pictures of real children, right?
So it's wrong for it to be based on one child, but according to you the AI "art" (as you keep calling it) is okay as long as there are thousands of victims instead?
So you're cool with images of 6 year olds being penetrated by a 40 year old as long as "tHe Ai DrEw iT sO nObOdY gOt HuRt"? I guess you could just set it as your desktop and phone wallpaper and everything would be fine. Let me know how that works out for you.
That's some stunning mental gymnastics right there.
It’s not art you pedo. Gtfo
It does matter how myself and wider society view disgusting content. It matters a lot. And society absolutely has a say of it's acceptance or otherwise to such content. You saying otherwise is absurd.
In the same way that I can't and shouldn't write something incrediblely racist and pretend it's 'art'. Even if AI made it.
Attempting to give AI child porn a pass, as you are doing for some baffling reason, absolutely will create further harm further down the line.
I’d say it’s because the person you’re replying to rightfully sees it as a slippery slope. If you say this fake image that didn’t directly harm anyone is illegal, what’s to stop you from saying some other fake image that’s much more in line with social tastes is also illegal? Ie an artwork made of human shit, for example. Most people would be repulsed by that. But it doesn’t change the fact that it could be art. As long as it doesn’t concretely harm someone, it’s hard to equate it to said harm.
It's child porn.
Child. Pornography.
It is not "Art".
The slippery slope is people like you confusing the two and trying to somehow justify CP as free speech/art.
I don't care how it is made. There is a line. This crosses it. Simple as that.
