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.

    Generative AI, just like a human, doesn’t rely on having seen an exact example of every possible image or concept

    If a human has never seen a dog before, they don’t know what it is or what it looks like.

    If it’s the same as a human, it won’t be able to draw one.
