On August 25th, a US federal appeals court ruled that privately possessing AI-generated child sexual abuse material is protected by the First Amendment, as long as no real child is depicted.
All three judges agreed, and none of them were happy about it. They wrote that they had "some concerns about the lines these cases draw," but that they were not free to redraw them. Only Congress and the Supreme Court can do that, and neither has...
The "no real child" line is only as strong as our ability to prove it. These AI models are trained on scraped photos of real people, including kids, and there is still no federal law governing who gets to collect your face or your child's.
Illinois passed one in 2008 and it's why Facebook paid out $650 million and why Clearview AI got sued for scraping billions of photos off the internet. Congress has never copied it.
My friend Julia Finocchiaro wrote a petition to change that. She's meeting with legislators soon and signatures are what give her leverage in the room.
