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.
I’m just interested where your morals stop. An AI image of murdering a child is perfectly fine with you—in a legal sense—as long as they have pants on. Strange.
Morality and legality are two completely different things.
Morally, I think all of it sucks ass including what you’re describing…but that only has a tenuous relationship with what is or ought to be illegal.
Well, we will have to agree to disagree on some things.
Btw, I enjoyed that slip and slide comment. Very clever.
