Epstein version?  Start by befriending kids on kid-friendly social
media.  Once a target gives a rough location, ship a robo-doll to the
area and arrange for a meeting.  LLM seduces the kid.  So far as the
victim knows, it's all on the up-and-up: they have an AI lover who
wishes to be theirs alone, kept hidden from the world (which may
eventually "die" when the service it was connected to goes dark).
What they don't know is that the robot's cost is paid for by uploading
videos of anything remotely sexualized.

The big question is why there's still enough of a market to finance
such schemes, when there is so much of that material freely available
(despite censorship efforts, and revulsion from most of the world),
and AI slop likely to generate much more.  (One can imagine flooding
sites that host it with AI generated body horror, especially in the
form of videos that look enticing in their first few seconds.  Such an
effort would be an endless whack-a-mole as users simply move on to
unflooded sites.)
