Comment on If AI spits out stuff it's been trained on

First of all, it’s by definition not CSAM if it’s AI generated. It’s simulated CSAM - no people were harmed doing it. That happened when the training data was created.

However it’s not necessary that such content even exists in the training data. Just like ChatGPT can generate sentences it has never seen before, image generators can also generate pictures it has not seen before. Ofcourse the results will be more accurate if that’s what it has been trained on but it’s not strictly necessary. It just takes a skilled person to write the prompt.

My understanding is that the simulated CSAM content you’re talking about has been made by people running their software locally and having provided the training data themselves.

This is blatantly false. It’s also illegal and you can go to prison for owning selling or making child Lolita dolls.

  Dumb internet argument from here on down; advise the reader to do something else with their time.

    CSAM = Child sexual abuse material
    Even virtual material is still legally considered CSAM in most places. Although no children were hurt, it’s a depiction of it. And that’s enough.

    Being legally considered CSAM and actually being CSAM are two different things. I stand behind what I said which wasn’t legal advise. By definition it’s not abuse material because nobody has been abused.

Tell that to the judge. People caught with machine-made imagery go to the slammer just as much as those caught with the real McCoy.

  It’s not legal advice I’m giving here.
