alphacyberrangerSouth Korea has jailed a man for using AI to create sexual images of children in a first for country's courts
SurrealIf the man did not distribute the pictures, how did the government find out? Did a cloud service rat him out? Or spyware?

Sir_KevinWhy the fuck isn’t that the headline? Jesus, that’s really awful and changes everything.
Because that was another case. Extortion and blackmail (and in this case would count as production of cp as would be the case if you would draw after a real child) are already illegal. On this case we simply dont have enough information.
Earlier this month, police in Spain launched an investigation after images of underage girls were altered with AI to remove their clothing and sent around town. In one case, a boy had tried to extort one of the girls using a manipulated image of her naked, the girl’s mother told the television channel Canal Extremadura.
That was another case in Spain. Not the guy in Korea. The person in Korea didn’t distribute the images.
I really gotta wonder what the difference is between prosecuting someone for their thoughts and prosecuting them for jerking it to their own artwork/generative whatever they kept entirely to themselves. The only bad I see here is someone having their privacy invaded by someone else bigger than them and being put on display for it. Sounds familiar?
