Europol has supported authorities from 19 countries in a large-scale hit against child sexual exploitation that has led to 25 arrests worldwide. The suspects were part of a criminal group whose members were engaged in the distribution of images of minors fully generated by artificial intelligence (AI).
This is also my take: any person can set up an image generator and churn any content they want. Focus should be on actual people being trafficed and abused.
Even people who want this sort of image banned need to stop describing it like the real thing. These headlines drive me up the wall - like seeing people arrested for “simulated murder.”
I think it’s pretty stupid. Borders on Thought Crime kind of stuff.
I’d rather see that kind of enforcement and effort go towards actually finding people who are harming children.

Paracetamol “borders on” poison, but isn’t.
Slippery slope is a logical fallacy, and there are actual consequences here. We need to do better.
Walk me through how any rendering “borders on” proof that a child was raped.
