MODERATORS
Suppose that instead of generating photos of faces, thispersondoesnotexist.com generated porn. Who would be harmed then?
For the love of everything holy. This is not how grown ups discuss things. Make your point and stop asking dumb questions.
As you well know, no one is directly harmed by the simple act of someone viewing AI generated porn which does not depict a real person.
That said, the law in my jurisdiction does not discern between real or not. If it's an image (even hentai) depicting sexual abuse against a minor then it's CSAM. How do you know if the depicted person is a minor? That's a question for a jury. I'm sure there are arguments against this position, but it's merits are obvious. You don't need to quibble over whether an image depicts a real person or not, if it's CSAM then it's illegal.
Then why did you say that there was no difference realism-wise between an image generated by AI and an image generated by a camera?
Because it's true.
How can that be true if it is also true that people in AI images are fake and no one is harmed by them?
People in AI images of real people are real.
People in AI images of fake people are fake.
