    He was found extorting little girls with nude pics he generated of them.

    Edit: So I guess he just generated them. In that case, how’d they become public? I guess this is the problem if you don’t read the article.

      Earlier this month, police in Spain launched an investigation after images of underage girls were altered with AI to remove their clothing and sent around town. In one case, a boy had tried to extort one of the girls using a manipulated image of her naked, the girl’s mother told the television channel Canal Extremadura.

      That was another case in Spain. Not the guy in Korea. The person in Korea didn’t distribute the images.
