Law Man in Florida arrested for creating Child porn through AI prompts

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.

he investigation kicked off after Indian River County Sheriff's Office received tips that McCorkle was prompting an AI image generator to make child sexual imagery and distributing it via the social media app Kik.

McCorkle's arrest was part of a county operation taking down people possessing child pornography, but the generative AI wrinkle in this particular arrest shows how technology is generating new avenues for crime and child abuse.

This isn't about the tech. Lolicon has always gotten obscenity charges in America; if he had used a pen and paper the same thing would have happened.

wasn't prosecuted for a long time though so it was almost like a legal loophole, nobody is gonna get charged for historic crimes of it either

some countries do have stupid simulated CP laws, I remember australia tried to ban small breast/flat chested porn under simulated CP, but thats different from loli and ai generated shit

Even if you buy the argument that faked porn of children, is not the same thing functionally as actual child porn - it is. Then you should still not allowed to be a pedo lol. Into the woodchipper.

"But it's not LITERALLY the thing it's functionally indistinguishable from!" This is one of the lowest IQ forms of arguing in general

Bro. An ai image is a cartoon. It's computer generated. It's not real. It's pixels creating a picture of something that doesn't exist

Jesus christ no wonder they have you faggots wearing masks

If you're wondering why pedophiles are so unapologetically retarded and intellect defficient worry not, neither The Science nor actual scientific researches know a solid answer. One thing for certain tho, .357 Pedocilin Magnum applied to them heads directly makes wonders.

That being said, rot in hell faggot.

Can someone please explain to me how this shit is (rightfully) illegal but drawn pedo shit that Japan makes isn't? Is it some nonsense first amendment argument or has no one gotten the balls to actually arrest these people?

Personally I think if you consume anything involving minors (drawn, real or otherwise) or what a reasonable person would consider a minor (looking at you "but she's 10,000 years old) for the purpose of sexual exploitation/sexual use (including shit like cuties) you should be worked to death/shot. I'm just wondering why any the line was drawn where it was or why we don't have a line at all for certain things.


Btw: Kill all pedos, their supporters and those who shield them.

Also I'm not for loosening the laws, I want them to be strengthened. Anime drawn shit and that crap on Netflix and what trannies make should be illegal

Lolicon can cop a obscenity charge like CSAM. It has to pass the Miller Test however. And the cops have to find it first, which usually means they were searching your computer for "real" CP already. So yes its bad, but also in a grey area due to it being a drawing. It can, but its not enforced as much as regular CSAM, because its trickier legally.

I've just never understood how it's not blatantly self evident.
"I watch porn of women with large breasts, including drawn porn of women with large breasts. Because I am attracted to large breasts" - Normal, everyone agrees, no controversy.
"I watch drawn porn of children. I am attracted to children" - A controversial statement requiring a UN team to investigate, for some reason.

I get being called a pedo is a terrible thing, but if you find children hot, the medium in which those children are depicted, is not relevant lol. You're a pedo.

And we've established it's not even lolicon in this case, but an AI model spitting out photorealistic cp he's talking about

It technically is but laws against it usually aren't enforced

afaik even more cartoony stuff is a grey enough area still, for a while the law was weird enough that even a drawing of a midget was an issue, so Nin Nin from La Blue Girl got cut heavily from USA releases for a while
you don't tend to see enforcement on a dude just for holding a smut comic based on Magical Princess Rat Fink A Boo Boo Plus, but they will use anything like that to pile on when they pop a dude from some real stuff

So then where does the issue of AI come in? Is it because AI images are just made up of thousands of bits of real world images, so in a round about way you are still using real exploration material?

 

[Hooked on phobics]

it doesnt. why did you ask this?

this "jew" is now trying to slander me as a pedophile or something because im against his anti-white/west bullshit.

regular people dont see my posts and say "this guy is defending child porn". only an ashkenazi animal with a sliver tongue would see it that way.

if you really wanna go down this road of defiling kids, my view is congruent with Matthew 18:6.

The amount of autism in this post is fucking staggering. Apparently according to him, not wanting AI generated CSAM is anti white jewishness.

Guess ill start wearing a tiny hat and being a greedy fuck, oi vey, fuck hwite goyim

 

[moocow]

Soooo ... maybe I'm late but has anyone asked the obvious question yet -- since this kind of AI generation has to be driven by existing material being fed to it for it to mimic, where the fuck did the AI model get its source data that it included CSAM? Please tell me this isn't/wasn't a publicly available model. I don't want to lose my last drop of hope for this world.

I wouldn't be shocked if there's somebody who's gotten a conviction for (among other things) shooping some kids' heads onto existing bodies

if anything this should probably be raising questions about why Big AI Inc decided to include a large amount of pizza in their dataset.

I've been around the onlines for a decade or few, and yeah you _can_ accidentally bump into a thing here and there, or at least something that looks enough to nope the fuck out asap, but it's still not like you run into this shit like random housewives and other thots

 

[Justa Grata Honoria]

I feel like i am taking crazy pills . What not wanting child porn made in any way is jewery? What? People suspecting you being a pedo are jws slandering you?

What level of schizophrenia is this??

I also need to wear a tiny hat and lose my foreskin.
Truly, that post was beyond autistic and retardness.

While there is probably a non-zero amount of csam present in the training material, just for practical reasons (just like how there is probably a non-zero amount on any large "amateur" pornography site), it's likely not necessary. If it has both children and nude adults in its training set, it just has to produce an amalgamation of the two - which is exactly what these types of generators are good at, ripping bits from existing works to create something new.

It cannot be overstated enough too, THIS IS NOT JUST LOLI CARTOON SHIT!!!! This is AI GENERATED versions of actual video recording of CSAM, which could in theory be indistinguishable from actual abuse videos of children, or used to generate videos of particular children being abused.

So that dumb fuck managed to make gflashex look good and sane by comparison, which I assumed was impossible.
