Who is the victim of this “crime” here?

This is probably controversial, but if we assume that pedos will (unfortunately) exist and will generate demand for this kind of material, isn't it better if it comes from an AI instead of real children?

Does the legality of fake material increase the demand of real material? Does availability of fake material "awaken" or otherwise normalize desires that might have remained dormant? Studies have shown a link between violent porn and abusive behavior. A link, of course, does not mean causation, but given the potential for monstrous harm, I think we need to be wary of legalizing this kind of material. There's also the question of the training set used to generate this type of imagery.

However, I also think thoughtcrime is a very dangerous and slippery slope. It's not an easy question with an easy answer.
