A 37-year-old man from Sanford, Florida, Blake McKinniss, has been arrested and charged with 100 counts of possessing real and virtual child pornography, which investigators believe was generated by Artificial Intelligence (AI). Police found a home decorated for little girls, with toys, underwear, toys, and a room dedicated to little girls. They also found thousands of files of child pornography. Florida Attorney General James Uthmeier described the arrest as a "depraved individual" who was likely days away or moments away from trying to access real children. McKinnISS, who graduated from the University of Central Florida and owned a home in a gated community, could spend the rest of his life behind bars if convicted. His arrest marks the arrest of more than 1400 child paediatric officers since his initial appointment.
