i want to be super very clear that i find this abhorrent but i think under the current laws we have the judge is right. ai CSAM should be illegal no matter what and possessing or creating it should be a crime. but we don’t yet have any law that applies to that scenario because it’s so new— we need a law specifically for this
i agree with all of that. i think it shouldn’t be covered but unfortunately legally speaking the way it’s worded, it would— bc this is a situation that was way out of the realm of possibility when the first amendment was written. but also legally speaking it is illegal and definitely not under the first amendment to train AI on CSAM so AI shouldn’t be able to make it in the first place. so if an AI can do this, the company should be prosecuted
