AI can cause child abuse? Flippant response I know, but "think of the children" isn't a good argument against technology advancing, almost every new technology can be abused in some way, that's not a reason to stop progress. Besides this isn't anything new. People have been drawing or making inappropriate art since probably the dawn of art.
