Creating and distributing anything should be legal if no real person suffers during its creation and if it's not intended at defamation, forgery, such things.
Bruh how is creating and distributing a non-consensual nude-ified picture of a young girl not a cause for suffering for the victim? Please, explain that to the class.
Did you just not go to school as a kid? If so, that would explain your absolute ineptitude on this topic. Your opinion is some real "your body, my choice" kind of energy.
There's a legitimate discussion to be had about harm reduction here. You're approaching this topic from an all-or-nothing mindset but there's quite a bit of research indicating that's not really how it works in practice. Specifically as it relates to child pornography the argument goes that not allowing artificial material to be created leads to an increase in production of actual child pornography which obviously means more real children are being harmed than would be if other forms were not controlled in the same fashion. The same sort of logic could be applied to revenge porn, stolen selfies, or whatever else we're calling the kind of thing this article is referring to. It may not be an identical scenario but I still think it would be fair to say that an AI generated image is not as damaging as a real one.
That is not to say that nothing should be done in these situations. I haven't decided what I think the right move is given the options in front of us but I think there's quite a bit more nuance here than your comment would indicate.
Read my comment again.
My advice to you would be to improve your reading comprehension before judging this way.
In particular, the word "defamation".
You would be fine with AI-gen porn images of your teenage daughter being distributed around the internet?
I take it, the word "defamation" is not part of your lexicon.
The issue being discussed does not fall under defamation.
Making forged pics of someone else falls under defamation.
It's very clearly not rape, sexual abuse, child pornography or non-consensual pornography.
Meanwhile in reality check out what she is distributing through Snapchat and only fans... Maybe pursuing the actual crimes first then if there's spare resources go after fiction.
Big "but what was she wearing?" energy here.
I don't give a shit if she's doing Shein bikini hauls on Youtube. If you use AI to nudify her pictures, you're manufacturing child pornography, and deserve the full consequences for doing that.
As for OnlyFans, they are quite strict about age requirements. Children aren't running OF accounts. You just hate women and needed to bring up OF to slut-shame.
No, equating this to an actual child being raped is incorrect. These are not crimes of remotely equal magnitude.
Comparing a person who raped a child, made photos and distributed them to a person who used Photoshop or an AI tool is, other than just evil, reducing the meaning of the former.
