Child Sexual Abuse Material is abhorrent because children were literally abused to create it.

AI generated content, though disgusting, is not even remotely on the same level.

The moral panic around AI that leads to implying that these things are the same thing is absurd.

Go after the people filming themselves literally gang raping toddlers, not the people typing forbidden words into an image generator.

Don't dilute the horror of the production CSAM by equating it to fake pictures.

Yes at a cursory glance that's true. AI generated images don't involve the abuse of children, that's great. The problem is what the follow-on effects of this is. What's to stop actual child abusers from just photoshopping a 6th finger onto their images and then claiming that it's AI generated?

AI image generation is getting absurdly good now, nearly indistinguishable from actual pictures. By the end of the year I suspect they will be truly indistinguishable. When that happens, how do you tell which images are AI generated and which are real? How do you know who is peddling real CP and who isn't if AI-generated CP is legal?

If pedophiles won't be able to tell what's real and what's AI generated why risk jail to create the real ones?
