A new report warns that the proliferation of child sexual abuse images on the internet could become much worse if something is not done to put controls on artificial intelligence tools that generate deepfake photos.
"By their own admission" doesn't necessarily hold any weight, though. They're not experts, and even if they were experts they can still be wrong. We've got treatments for a variety of psychological disorders these days, with varying efficacy, I don't think it's unreasonable to expect that someday we'll make progress on this sort of thing too.
If we have the tech to change people's brains in such a way, what else will it gets used on? Ethically, there's differences between pedophilia and other sexual preferences but I don't know if there's any biological differences. Given conversion camps are already a problem despite not working, I can't see how they wouldn't become a bigger problem if they did actually do what they claimed…
Even when conversion camp stuff is illegal, people still try it. Even if just DIY abuse (which is also illegal and still common). Simply not having the tech may be preferable to having the tech/knowledge, making it illegal to use it, and then people use it illegally anyways. If child abuse in general was something that could have just not been invented, not inventing it would be far superior to inventing it and then making it illegal.
You have offenders saying if you let me out I will do it again you don't think they are experts on their own feelings or behaviour), just like pscyhopaths some can't be fixed. As the word suggests pedophile means loving kids. While some are just nasty ass people, many see it as their sexual orientation (still nasty to harm kids obviously). Like being straighr or being gay. it can be hard wired. i'm sure with early intervention before 7 you might fix deviation or at least teach restraint from acting in it… but they have formed a concrete ldentity. I think larger strides will be made by protecting kids from sexual abuse at an early age than therapy after the fact trying to fix brain wiring
Some can't be cured by their own admission, its seems for some it is a deep seated sexual deviation that was probably established in very eaely life.

We have the tech right now to shoot people dead. It's just tech, create laws about what's acceptable to do with it and what's not.

oh yeah cause that's working out oh so perfectly
This thread is about how to regulate AI-generated child porn, that's going to require creating laws too.
What's your proposed alternative to using laws to regulate tech?
I was just saying that this tech that shoots people dead isn't really regulated all too well in certain parts of the world.
Well, mainly just one. There are lots of other places in the world that do okay at it.
