There needs to be way more attention drawn to this aspect.
The thing around AI is that it can't create something from nothing. So if you ask it to make an image of Will Smith eating spaghetti it will use it's vast database of images that are most likely to fit the words Will Smith and images that are most likely to fit the words eating spaghetti and produce the most probable combination of the two. So we get an image of Will Smith eating spaghetti. Likewise if it's asked to make an image of a celebrity naked it can combine images of the celebrity with pictures of naked adult men/women. And if it is asked to make a realistic image of a small child....
The only way an AI is able to make CSE type material is if it has been extensively trained on CSE basically. So even though the "images" are claimed not to be real they are based on the real suffering of a real child. Actually many many children. So there are two sets of victims - children who have had sexually explicit images generated of them from their normal photographs, and abuse victims whose images were used to generate those images.
AI companies throwing up their hands and talking about how users are "evading the safeguards they built in" to do this are way more culpable than they claim. And there's a place for people like that. It's called Prison.
