Let me put this on record that AI generated CSAM is bad and I wholeheartedly agree that AI generated content that exploits real life children should be criminalized.
With that said, let me point out why what Jersh has said here is a false dichotomy and I can't believe I have to explain as to why.
AI can be trained to do anything illegal or create anything illegal with already existing legal content and legal information that you can already find legally on the clearnet (online public information about human anatomy, medical books, publicly available guides to blackhat hacking, public information on how to do money laundering, public information on how nuclear reactor grade material is made (the boy scout that created his own nuclear reactor figured out how to make a nuclear reactor on his own based on information that was already publicly available), publicly available information on how to make explosives, public information on how drugs are synthesized, publicly available legal porn, publicly available 'Safe for Work' videos online, publicly available legal artwork, publicly available 'Safe for Work' photos on the Internet, the list goes on).
You don't need actual CSAM for an AI to create AI generated CSAM. I remember reading about a criminal obscenity case in California where an unnamed AI model (the press did not name this AI for public safety reasons) that was available on app stores for a while and it was used to take 'Safe For Work' photos of real life minors and then the AI would undress them by creating illegal phonographic deepfakes where the AI was likely trained to do this using stuff you can find legally on the clearnet (such as learning how human genitalia looks like based on what can be found legally on places like xHamster and Wikipedia and various medical books that can be found legally online). If anyone wonders, the court that was in charge of that case ruled that the devs for that AI model now has to pay a lot of money in damages to the victims.
What I'm saying is that you don't need to go to the darknet to learn how to become Walter White to make crystal meth or learn how to do other illegal activities on the Internet. Shadman didn't really need to go on the darknet and look CSAM to make that now infamous artwork of Keemstar's daughter because he had plenty of references that he can legally find on the clearnet.
This is the same energy that that people make with cryptocurrencies where one common dumbass argument against crypto is "Crypto is bad because it's used by criminals".
Criminals also still use traditional fiat currencies (such as the U.S. Dollar, the Yen, the Euro, the Yuan, the Russian Ruble, the Mexican Peso, the Indian Rupee, and so on) for their illegal activities as well but no one really demonizes fiat currencies because of them being used by criminals. There's a lot to criticize crypto for but crypto being used for criminal activity isn't one of those criticisms.
AI generated CSAM is bad and it should become a criminal offense but it's so easy for someone like me to pick apart Jersh's arguments (even when he's in the right) because he's too stupid to present a solid argument that isn't filled with logical holes that anyone can pick apart. I just can't help but shake the feeling like it's as though Jersh failed his high school or college English courses and skipped the lectures on how not to sound like a dumbass when writing a research paper.
