Wireheading humanity into population collapse via pervasive sexual hyperstimuli (which is realistically what is on the table here) is basically the definition of "harmful".
This is just silly because it only takes one AI company to defect and start enabling it, and the problem is already pretty bad even without AI.
I think all of the solutions are demand-side, not supply side. I would expect differential reproductive rate trends between populations with and without proscriptions on ersatz reality consumption (i.e. aniconist Muslims, Mennonites, etc.) to accelerate
