 If generated nude images of young people who don't exist should be illegal, how would you objectively classify it as child porn? Since the subjects in the image don't have birthdays... 
 The day they were created is their birthday 
 Exact birthdays aren't a requirement, even in cases involving actual abused children. Age range or level of development they appear to be can be good enough for a case. Statutes can include "simulated," or modified, images too. 
 Common sense. Simple commons sense. 
 So you're saying it's subjective, not objective. 
 Yep! It can be. And sometimes a juror agrees or disagrees. 
 We can just change the definitions as needed like Democrats. 
 Remember Nostr posts can’t be deleted 
 And nobody can stop my nostr account for asking uncomfortable questions. 
 I’m glad you’re having the “should we / how do we ban horse porn debate” right off the bat, since it’s a subject and problem that every forum and forum moderator has to deal with and decide. 
 and by the way this is why i love #nostr #grownostr - the relay system handles this as best as can be expected 
 You gotta figure some kind of standard out, not a good loophole to leave open 
 Only pedos are interested in creating loopholes and changing definitions…

Change my mind.

 Welcome to nostr! 
 In my country, they've made a law for loli manga or any imaginary children's porn drawings, which can be punished by 5 years in prison. Even if the person drew it privately without sharing it. 
 Can pictures you keep of your own children ever lead to someone else concluding they are child porn?
I see the question you're edging towards is something like:
If no harm was done to anyone, can it ever be wrong?
Possibly in the eye of the beholder.
If you like to draw people in weird positions, and they are forced upon no one, they should be part of freedom of expression.
The "generated" part I feel could have some issues: What is the source material of the model the AI required to generate the not existing person? It could be as wrong as stealing texts from others to generate "your" book. Still wrong if direct plagiarism...
  
 So its not real therefore zero restrictions on it . No age limits either? Is that what you are suggesting?  
 Honestly you should be put to death 
 Thinking Legislators care whether laws are Objective or Just is a serious error. 
 Drawings and dolls don't fall into the ontological category of human beings, therefore there is no reason for they be prohibited
