Pretty sure the actual CP played a bigger role in the sentencing
Yeah this is a scary, clickbaity headline meant to invoke a negative response about AI. AI is a tool, like a computer or pipe wrench. It can be used for good or bad.
The sicko got what he deserved, but the AI bit is rather over-the-top.
The part that freaks me out is more that he was in an influential position in children's lives and he was making images of the specific children who were his patients.
This is unfortunately not that uncommon. Pedos often work in child focused jobs. Very disturbing, and that's why background checks are important in those fields.
Not only pedos, in general sadistic people tend to try and get jobs which would give them the feeling of power over someone, and not all of them can be dictators, warlords, just politicians, even lowly prison guards or policemen, also cowardice is a factor. So - child-related jobs.
But, to be frank, I'm not sure background checks are going to do that much good. People of this kind tend to bunch together, help each other, and can either get past the radar rather easy or utilize these checks to discredit anybody who'd be a threat to them.
It's a complex matter.
Which makes you wonder why religious groups can get around the requirements. I am actually not against say the Church of LDS spending money to provide free therapy for children I just want those therapists held to the same standards we hold regular therapists too. Which includes sexual background screenings.
Is it honestly that surprising? Just because they are sexually attracted to kids does not mean they cannot love kids on an emotional level. I don’t think it’s impossible that there would be pedophiles who both love children and recognize that sexual and intimate contact is reprehensible.
Put differently, I would much rather hear “child psychiatrist caught with computer-generated CSAM modeled after his patients” than “child psychiatrist caught with nude photos of his patients” or “child psychiatrist charged with sexual assault of a minor”. Comparatively speaking, the first is really just computer-assisted thoughtcrime, while the others mean there was actual direct harm to a child.
Although in this particular instance, child psychiatrist is a bit too close to the child, in my opinion.
Exactly, it's not the AI bit, it's the rest of the story about how this dude was in a position of power to exploit children (and did so) that's just fucking sick.
Username totally checks out. Definitely not AI or a bot.
CP? What does that mean?
Child pornography.
I know people should usually google things, but that's not something that someone should really have in their search history! Lol
How come you are already using a short form, how often do you talk about this kind of thing???
Its pretty well established what CP stands for.
CP got reworded to CSAM (child sexual abuse material) btw
afaik its because „porn“ is thought to imply consent
CSAM sounds like a cool weapons system, I dont want to tarnish that image nor believe that theres anyone out there who thinks "porn" implies consent, be it about kids or not
sorry
I wasn't debating what it meant, just that my reality is way cooler than yours mate
I know, thats why I said sorry. you disnt want to believe it, I showed you proof
In this case there are several crimes, but in the other one mentioned about a korean there is nothing, only possession of generated content arguing that there is high realism (someone could say the same even of a sketch). To imprison for acts that have neither victims nor any harm either directly or indirectly, is more aberrant than possessing that.
PS: I'm just talking about legality and rights, I know it's controversial and I'm sure someone has something to argue against it, but if you're going to accuse me of being a pedo just get lost you moron.
I agree with what you are saying.
however, I think psychologists might not be a fan of giving them access to that material. I think the reason is because they would end up looking fore more and more extreme material and they could end up offending as a result of that
Afaik we're still yet to find out whether viewing AI-generated material makes an individual look for real-life child abuse imagery.
I believe viewing the latter allows many to keep real-life urges under control (might re-check materials on that), but it obviously comes with its own issues. If we can make AI generated child pornography, and if it doesn't make people go look for the "real stuff", we might actually make a very positive impact on child safety.
According to the few studies we have in the nineties and aughts most people who have sexual attractions to kids are aware acting on them can be harmful and will turn to alternative ways to explore them (when they can't be suppressed or redirected.) So yes, now we have victimless ways to produce porn, the objections are to the fetishes themselves, not to resulting violent behavior.
That said people commonly and openly express their distaste for such people, more so than domestic violence offenders who assault their kids, just not sexually. The same general disdain for child-sex-attracted adults does not transfer to action to feed children or protect them from abusive households.
That said, when we've worried about fiction driving people to act it out in reality, historically this has been demonstrated wrong every single time. Women are not driven to scandal and harlot behavior from trashy romance. Teens are not driven to violence from violent movies or video games. We can expect porn featuring childreb is not going to compell someone to seek to actually sex-assault kids.
He used a web based stable diffusion to generate CP. Absolute genius level move 😂
Things to never say before committing a crime:
"Wait, let me sign in with my Google account first."
Our legal system basically relies on the fact that criminals are that stupid.
Same for our political system.
Healthcare should be built for assuming everybody is an idiot, but instead you need a degree in medical codes invoicing
Healthcare is built assuming everyone is an idiot.
and somehow it still works.
People have been caught making bomb threats using their own phones. Some people are just not bright enough to be able to survive in this world.
It's for people like them that you have to have signs everywhere that say things like, don't stick your hand in the crushy grindy place, this hot water is hot, and don't drink bleach you'll die.
You would be surprised how many absolutely idiotic Pedos are out there
People in general really. Some of the stuff your average person does on the internet and their devices absolutely stumps me, and I'm not even that tech savvy.
Ease of use, plus people anticipate that there will be much more "noise" drowning their activities out in the daily torrent of information. Then back to your point again, people are dumb and forget it's relatively easy to lookout for certain things even with enormous data flow.
I really wouldn't be surprised. I've seen the average person, so many idiots.
They should become a Republican speaker. Then they'll get a TON of support from the Protect The Children crowd!
Or a pastor so the church can relocate them to a fresh batch of victims.
why the FUCK
Pedos are gonna pedo.
Why does the title focus on AI? It looks more like advertisement for AI that can produce porn than the fact that a psychiatrist got photos of naked children under their care... Not sure how else can you teach an algorithm to generate naked children.
Just chipping in with a technicical answer - a model can know what thing A is, also be shown a thing B, and compose the two. Otherwise models would never be able to display anything that doesn't exist yet.
In this particular case, there's stock imagery of children online, and there's naked adults online, so a model can combine the two.
This case seems to be AI fear mongering, the dude had actual CP....
"As a child psychiatrist, Tatum knew the damaging, long-lasting impact sexual exploitation has on the wellbeing of victimized children," said US Attorney Dena J.
The trial evidence cited by the government includes a secretly-made recording of a minor (a cousin) undressing and showering, and other videos of children participating in sex acts.
"Additionally, trial evidence also established that Tatum used AI to digitally alter clothed images of minors making them sexually explicit," prosecutors said.
"Specifically, trial evidence showed that Tatum used a web-based artificial intelligence application to alter images of clothed minors into child pornography."
In prepared remarks [PDF] delivered at a US Senate subcommittee hearing earlier this year, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman said, "GPT-4 is 82 percent less likely to respond to requests for disallowed content compared to GPT-3.5, and we use a robust combination of human and automated review processes to monitor for misuse.
A recent report from investigative organization Balkan Insight says groups like Thorn have been supporting CSAM detection legislation to make online content scanning compulsory in part because they provide that service.

Would be good if we could use this for porn. It's better than anyone actually being in porn. If AI takes over then less people would be trafficked and in the porn industry
Implying nobody enjoys making porn.
Didn't
Some do but but a lot are forced into it.
What would help with sex trafficking is legalizing and regulating prostitution and destigmatizing it.
That doesn't work worldwide
Regulating prostitution?
Because you think it is a normal, thought life style? A girl having a normal education (school, not abused during her youth, abandoned, fled war/guerrilla), eating to her fill would choose this path?!
Yep, some hints are videos and stories of people asking the prostitute to clean their house or cook for them, only to be told to get lost...
So, because they had a rough life and choose to sell sex, they shouldn't get workplace protections? Protection of the law?
Bet you think all drugs should be illegal as well.
Or maybe, providing them better opportunities in our societies than selling their bodies to a disgusting guy?!
Bet you think all drugs should be illegal as well.
i don't know what you are smoking right now but it's not helping you for dialog.
Could be that some people actually choose to do the work and if it was regulated and destigmatised, opinions like yours would disappear.
A bit sensationalist there - article states he'd videoed minors in sexual acts. Probably what got him his well deserved prison stint.
Though I must say, the AI part alone should be enough to rule him out of a career around kids!
I missed that paragraph when I skimmed the article. Thanks!
The trial evidence cited by the government includes a secretly-made recording of a minor (a cousin) undressing and showering, and other videos of children participating in sex acts.
Edit: also, I wondered how he got caught, but this was probably how.
I look forward to the inevitable news story about an inmate crushing his skull with an exercise weight.

I think it's more to include anything that's sexually abusive instead of what is just pornograthic.
