You know the answer to this but I'll just say it: Its different in that it requires no skill and can be done by anyone instantaneously at scale.

You know this but somehow are rationalizing this game changing fact away.

Yes, people can draw and photoshop things. But it takes time, skill, dedication, etc. This time cost is load bearing in the way society needs to deal with the tools it has for the same reason at the extreme that kitchen knives have different regulations than nuclear weapons.

It is also trivially easy for grok to censor this usage for the vast majority of offenders by using the same LLM technology they already have to classify content created by their own tools. Yes, it could get jailbroken but that requires skill, time, dedication, etc; And it can be rapidly patched, greatly mitigating the scale of abuse.
