Nebraska renamed its child pornography statutes the Child Sexual Abuse Material Prevention Act and expanded the definition of illegal material to cover computer-generated and AI-created depictions. An obscene image that depicts a child, a computer-generated person who would appear to a reasonable person to be a child, or a person shown with the physical features of a child now qualifies as child sexual abuse material. The law defines 'computer-generated' to include visual depictions created or altered using a computer, a digital process, or artificial intelligence.
Who is protected: Children and minors depicted, or appearing to be depicted, in sexual abuse material, including AI-generated or computer-altered depictions.
