A Florida man is facing 20 counts of obscenity for allegedly creating and distributing AI-generated child pornography.

A Florida man is facing 20 counts of obscenity for allegedly creating and distributing AI-generated child pornography, highlighting the danger and ubiquity of generative AI being used for nefarious reasons.

Phillip Michael McCorkle was arrested last week while he was working at a movie theater in Vero Beach, Florida, according to TV station CBS 12 News. A crew from the TV station captured the arrest, which made for dramatic video footage due to law enforcement leading away the uniform-wearing McCorkle from the theater in handcuffs.

    That’s just defending child porn with extra steps.

    Why do you keep defending child porn? And why would you be so willing to die on the hill of defending child porn unless you, yourself, were a consumer of it? Yet, it was you who accused me of projection…

    It’s the shamelessness of you and your position that I find most revolting, really.

      Not the guy you’re replying to, but maybe this’ll help you understand:

      If AI art isn’t art, AI CSAM isn’t CSAM

        If AI art isn’t art

        I’m not making that argument, but thanks for the straw man

        Also, FWIW, for this argument to make sense, CSAM would have to be considered art, which it isnt.

        It amazes me the lengths that some people will go to to rationalize child porn

          It amazes me the lengths that some people will go to to pretend they’re a fucking moron

                I’m not the one who’s been defending kiddie porn for several days.

                “I know you are but what am I?” Is a defense kids use— like the ones in those kiddie porn you love so much.
