The article seems to be mostly about imposing limitations over more taboo sex acts and uses the examples of bondage and vomit.
It does get into ethics near the end with the following section
I’m so confused by this quote and hope there is something that was left out. If something isn’t conscious it seems that consent is not absent - it is inapplicable.
I challenge anyone to name a situation where consent is logically relevant to something that doesn’t have consciousness (e.g. something other than humans or animals).
Personally I don't think it would be much less ethical than watching any other adult content. It's put out there and people use it how they want often without being directly told "You can masturbate to this"
With AI content there probably wouldn't be a lot of criminal issues compared to traditional adult content like human trafficking and GirlsDoPorn for example.
