And by the logic of this being so wrong.. that would mean any story written about celebrity tickling, any artwork drawn, etc... would all be immoral in the same way. So if we're outlying AI we should outlaw tickling stories etc.
No. Not at all, really.
When it comes to fictional writing, most of the time people reading it are going to assume that said work it's fake, made up. And it's not trying to be seen as something different, unless the author isn't stating otherwise (like claiming it's the absolutely real experience they had with x celebrity they've randomly met and had a tickle session with; people actually buying that: 0).
Same applies to drawings and, a fortiori, photoshop of celebrities: people are always going to know that those are, indeed, drawings or edits (there are really well made fakes, but people are going to assume those are in fact fake stuff nonetheless).
This AI stuff, especially with the latest, state-of-the-art models (Sora 2 in primis) is blurring the line between real and fake at a worrying rate: people will see a picture of celebrity A in stocks getting tickled and they're not doing to think "man, there are really some weirdos on the internet doing these edits", but instead "holy shit, did this actually happen?".
These are basically deepfakes: it's not different from using AI to strip an actress, you're simply puppeteering her to say "OMG, I'm so ticklish!" instead of getting off from seeing her naked.
And these things are widely available to pretty much everyone: at least, with drawings, writings and even fakes you have some kind of barrier of entry, whose difficulty may vary, but at least there's one, and that alone manages to limit the amount of stuff circulating on the internet. With AI you don't have any barrier of entry whatsoever, with some minimal effort a model will spit out a dozen of passable (for now) deepfakes. Multiply that by every horny guy who really want to see that actress, singer or celebrity naked or saying the word, and do the math.
And, to be clear: I mostly don't like drawings, writings and fakes about celebrities; while I do know fantasizing about celebrities is perfectly normal, I myself feel uncomfortable for them (I'm weird, I know).
Having said so, I don't pretend in the slightest that AI-generated stuff isn't INCREDIBLY more dangerous and problematic than the other things you've mentioned.
