It's confusing because that was also my interpretation until I saw the quote from the DoJ prosecutor in the article:
>“Today’s announcement sends a clear message: using AI to produce sexually explicit depictions of children is illegal, and the Justice Department will not hesitate to hold accountable those who possess, produce, or distribute AI-generated child sexual abuse material"

That’s what the state police charged him with in March. The article doesn’t include the specific federal charges for some reason, but the FBI statement suggest they believe the generation itself is also illegal.

Sure, but what would the charge be? (I'm in the UK, here such is definitely illegal.)

The first, second, and fourth charges in the indictment[1] is for violating 18 USC 1466A(a)(1)/(b)(1)/(d)(1)/(d)(4), which are the statutes against producing/distributing/possessing an "obscene" "drawing, cartoon, sculpture, or painting" "depict[ing] a minor engaging in sexually explicit conduct".
