But you didn’t say you had proof with your comment, you said it was probable. Basically saying its common sense that its proven.
Why are you getting aggressive about actually having to provide proof about something when saying its obvious?
Also, that seems to imply that locking up people for AI offenses would then encourage truly reprehensible behavior by linking them with those who already engage in it.
Almost like lumping people together as one big group, instead of having levels of grey area, means people are more likely to just go all in instead of sticking to something more morally defensible.
Because it’s a casual discussion, I think it’s obnoxious when people constantly demand sources to be cited in online comments section when they could easily look it up themselves. This isn’t some academic or formal setting.
And I disagree, only the second source mentioned prisons explicitly. The first source mentions social environments as well. So it’s a damned if you do, damned if you don’t situation. Additionally, even if you consider the second source, that source mentions punishment reforms to prevent that undesirable side effect from occuring.
I find it ironic that you criticized me for not citing sources and then didn’t read the sources. But, whatever. Typical social media comments section moment.

People request sources because people state their opinions as fact. If that’s how it’s presented then asking for a source is ok. Its either ask for a source or completely dismiss the comment.
Again, in casual conversation where no one was really debating, it’s obnoxious. When you’re talking to friends in real life and they say something, do you request sources from them? No, because it’d be rude and annoying. If you were debating them in earnest and you both disagreed on something, sure, that would be expected.
But that wasn’t the case here, the initial statement was common sense: If pedophiles are allowed to meet up and trade AI generated child sex abuse material, would that cause some of them to be more likely to commit crimes against real kids? And I think the answer is pretty obvious. The more you hang around people who agree with you, the more an echo chamber is cultivated. It’s like an alcoholic going into a bar without anyone there to support them in staying sober.
Anyway, it’s your opinion to think asking for sources from strangers in casual conversation is okay, and it’s mine to say it can be annoying in a lot of circumstances. We all have the Internet at our fingertips, look it up in the future if you’re unsure of someone’s assertion.
