Revises provisions relating to pornography involving minors. (BDR 15-195)
AB 126 updates Nevada law to criminalize creating, distributing, or possessing artificial intelligence-generated images depicting minors in sexual acts, as well as digitally altered images of real minors in such content. It expands existing felony penalties for pornography involving minors to cover these new forms of material, including AI-generated depictions that appear realistic. Individuals convicted under this law would now be required to register as sex offenders. The bill directly affects anyone producing, sharing, or distributing such content, with penalties ranging from category B to A felonies.
