"A race against time to protect the children of our country from the dangers of AI."
AI-generated child sex imagery has every US attorney general calling for action::"A race against time to protect the children of our country from the dangers of AI."
Isn't AI generated better than content sourced from real life? It could actually drive a reduction in child sexual abuse instances due to offenders leveraging alternative sources.
Based on my understanding of how current diffusion models work, you actually don't need to train it on CP. As long as it knows how humans look like without clothes and how children look like even if fully clothed with abayas and stuff, it can make the relation and generate CP when asked to.
Just to be clear, I'm totally against any form of CP and CSAM. Just explaining how the tech works.
I see what you're saying, but ai has yet to offset regular porn production at all. There's no reason I see to think accepting ai cp would do anything but normalize it and make it more accessible, possibly increasing demand for the real stuff.
Also, the ai models need to be trained on something...
One big problem is that it makes enforcement of real abuse impossible. If there is an explosion of that kind of ai generated content and it gets good enough to be confused for the real thing, then real abuse will slip under the radar. It would be impossible to sift through all that content trying to differentiate between ai generated and real if ai generated were ever allowed.
Majority of pedofiles never offend and most of the people in jail for child abuse are plain old rapists with no particular interest in kids per se, they're just an easy target.
This is the same old "violent games makes people violent" -argument all over again.
Fueling the child addiction will harden the persons mental health problem.
One of the ways to help a person with such addiction, is to replace it with adult pornography.
Fueling it with more of that content won’t do any good.
I asked for a source for these claims because obviously you didn't just come up with this yourself, so I'm assuming there's some study to back these claims up which I asked you to provide, and instead you gave me a link that even you admitted doesn't talk about any of this.
Also:
It’s obviously stated there is psychological help.
From the study you linked:
..healthcare providers must rely on data from international literature. These clearly demonstrate that simple psychotherapies do not lead to a reduction in the risk of reoffending. On the other hand, therapies such as Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and, even more so, the combination of CBT with pharmacotherapy targeting hormones, significantly reduces the risk of reoffending.
For an addiction, like porn, it is hard to get out because it becomes an habit (it can be compared to gambling...). And changing the habit is very difficult. It becomes impulsive.
A solution to get out of such addiction, is to find another habit (in addition of adequate treatment or therapy). which will take the place of the porn addiction.
A could be similarly be translated to aldult/child content.
As stated in that study, most of the people considered attracted to childrens also have attraction to adult partners/content.
... studies have shown that only 7% of pedophiles are exclusively. The vast majority of pedophiles are therefore non-exclusive and have sex with adults in 93% of cases [2].
So a possible way could be the replacement of the child content with adult content.
Which is where the investigative journal I talked about comes in. I don't remember where and when (not something I look for...). But they went and interviewed a special medical house where people could be put, or go to get help and treatment.
I don't remember the %. But they found some success for people not falling back into children content.
It was in a news/investigation journal on TV at one point. I can't because I don't remember the time and journal.
They talked about people being put in some sort of helping home. There they helped the people get away from such content and replacing it with adult content.
This was pretty recent if I remember well. So the article above being from 2012 may not have all studies and information.
