Technically, any model trained on LAION-5B before December 2023 was trained on CSAM.

But yeah, I expect any porn model trained on a sufficient diversity of adult actors could be used to make convincing CP even without having it in the training data. AI image generation is basically the digital equivalent of a chainsaw - a tool for a particular messy job that can really hurt people if used incorrectly. You wouldn't let a typical kid run around unattended with one, that's for sure.

I know I'm wading into the danger zone here, but let's also remember we're talking about teenagers. A (for example) 15 year old's body type will be closer to an 18 year old's than a 5 year old's, so the perfectly legal porn model would work just fine for that, uh, purpose.
