Police investigation remains open. The photo of one of the minors included a fly; that is the logo of Clothoff, the application that is presumably being used to create the images, which promotes its services with the slogan: “Undress anybody with our free service!”

Right, the technology is out there so we as a society need to establish norms, customs, and yes, laws governing its use.

I'm pretty firmly on the side of there being legal consequences for taking pictures of real minors, running them through a service to create nude replicas, and then circulating those pictures. That is wrong on so many levels and could constitute any number of crimes without the AI component including, such as harassment. I mean, intentionally using someone's likeness to circulate embarrassing materials already had legal consequences. This is just a whole other level of ick on top.

Personally I don't see a difference between using an AI service or plain old Photoshop to create a fake nude picture of someone. Both should be punished in the same way and if law makers haven't caught up with the Photoshop version after 30 years they likely won't handle the AI version in this century either.

I would agree, though I wonder about the service mentioned that is dedicated to the process. My comment was in response to someone who seemed to think circulating fake nudes wasn't a problem, regardless of how they were generated.
