A 3-judge panel ruled that the First Amendment protects a person's right to privately possess AI-generated images or videos of child sexual abuse.
A La Crosse County man was criminally charged with using an open-source AI image generator to create thousands of explicit images of children.
The appeals court ruled in favor of the man, stating that the First Amendment protects a person's right to privately possess images or videos of child sexual abuse, if the material does not depict a real person and remains in the home.
The ruling only applied to the man's criminal charge for possessing the materials, but he still faces prosecution for producing and distributing them.
