Moral question:

Such tool will be used to generate lewd imagery involving virtual minors.

No way to prevent it upstream by outlawing feeding it real content (whose possession already is illegal). Suffice to add 'childrenize' layer onto adult NN or something.

How will the legal system react ? Bundle it into illegal imagery, period ? Maybe it's already the case - I think drawing made public is, not sure. If not, on what ground could it be ? No real minor would be involved in that production.



Thoughtcrime is not a thing in the US, do not know about other countries

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thoughtcrime

Though Think of the children folk have often tried to make it illegal.


It's illegal in other countries, Canada and Australia are especially uptight about it.


Won’t somebody please think of the imaginary children?


If it is made illegal it'll probably be applied to the sites that distribute stuff like that, not this model itself.
