"Deepfakes" are edited pictures of real people. I'd be more inclined to agree with you on completely AI generated images but not something specifically intended to deceive others into thinking they're viewing a real person's image.

Deepfakes are, however the top-level comment I was answering was not limited to deepfakes. And as my further discussion with its author shows, they too didn't mean only deepfakes.

Their opinion was that any kind of pornography portraying children, even if it's not shared with others and not based on pics of real people, should be prosecuted just like making real child pornography.

You know, this thread has once again reinforced me in my opinion that the best system of government is Aspie Reich. Only people with Aspergers should be allowed to make laws and judge and hold public posts. The rest of fucking chimps just don't have what it takes to override their chimp instincts.
