    Normalising AI-generated CSAM might reduce the harm done to children during production of the material but it creates many more abusers.

    The problem with your argument is that you assume a bunch of stuff that we just don’t know, because we haven’t tried it yet. The closest thing we do know are drugs, and for them controlled access has proven to work really well. So I think it’s at least worth thinking about and doing limited real-world trials.

    And I don’t think any sane person is suggesting to just legalize and normalize it. It would have to be a way for people to self-report and seek help, with conditions such as mandatory check-in/counseling and not being allowed to work with children.

      Controlled access to drugs does work well. But legalising AI-generated CSAM is much more analogous to the opiate crisis, which is an unmitigated disaster.

        How so, if you don’t commercialize it? No legal actor would have an incentive to increase the market for CSAM, and it’s not like people who are not already affected would or could just order some for fun.

          That would be a discussion for an entirely different thread. I would still disagree with you but the people arguing in favour of CSAM on this thread don’t think it should be a crime to make it using AI.

        Again, how do you know this for a fact? I see your argument being feelings over facts
