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.

    Other tyrannical groups that also won’t follow the law? I don’t think laws will “prepare” for those either.

      Well then why even have laws?

      I’m talking about the extremely common scenario in history where the government makes an unjust law and then follows it, so their persecution is totally legal.
