We can’t wait for that to happen, xitter needs to close the technology before the first image puts them in trouble.

That is why this bill imposes heavy fines. No company has good reason to operate a tool like this if every single nude generated can cost them half a million dollars each.

This bill isn't a "you can do this but we'll give you a slap on the wrist each time you do" bill, it's a "if you build a tool like this and let it loose, your company is going bankrupt and we're talking your life savings, so you'd better not"
