But that's the same issue of making fakes that we've had for 30+ years since digital manipulation became feasible.

Yeah sure except now to make deep fake porn you just need to go 'famous star naked riding an old man's cock' set 8 images for each seed and set a job of 100 images, turn the air con to antarctic and make misogynistic videos about why movies are woke while the job slowly cooks your studio

Then when you finish you probably have some good images of whatever famous star you like getting railed by an old man and you can hop on YouTube and complain that people don't think you are an artist.

It requires almost no effort or talent to make a boatload of deep fake material. If you put any effort in you can orchestrate an image that looks pretty good.

Add to that the fact that before ai, unless you're already pretty famous, no one cares enough to make nonconsensual porn of you. After, anyone vaguely attracted to you can snap or find a few pictures and do a decent job of it without any skill or practice.

Ease of creation shouldn't have a bearing on whether or not the final result is illegal. A handmade vs AI generated fake nude should be treated the same way.

I didn't argue that it shouldn't. The difference is the ease of creation. It now requires no skill or talent to produce it so the game has changed and it needs to be addressed and not dismissed
