AN ACT relating to crimes; expanding certain prohibitions relating to pornography involving minors; revising the penalties for certain crimes relating to pornography involving minors; and providing other matters properly relating thereto.

In one paragraph

Nevada SB 263 makes AI-generated child sexual abuse material a crime. It defines "computer-generated child pornography" to include altered depictions of real children and visual representations created by artificial intelligence or other computer technology that are indistinguishable from a minor. Preparing, advertising or distributing such material, and possessing it, are now covered by the existing child-pornography offenses, and a second or subsequent distribution offense becomes a category A felony.
