So it's okay to make nudes of someone as long as they aren't realistic?

Where is the line drawn between being too real and not real enough?

If you found out that someone had made a bunch of art of you naked you’d probably think that was weird. I’d argue you shouldn’t do that without consent. Draw lines wherever you think is best.

I'd definitely think it was weird! And probably not hang out with them anymore (unless it was really good!)

But I don't think there should be a law against them doing that. I can moderate them myself by avoiding them and my friends will follow suit.

At that point, all they have are nudes of me that nobody I care about will pay attention to. It's a good litmus test for shitbags!

This is about producing convincing nude reproductions of other people, however. It has a very different psychological impact.

This technology allows someone to make pornography of anyone else and spread that pornography on the internet. It can cause massive distress, trauma, and relationship issues and impact peoples careers.

Your freedom to make nude ai images of other people is not worth that. I don't understand why anyone would think it was okay.

Agreed, but legal and moral are different. The law isn’t really about right and wrong per se.
