OP said "API", and refers to many thousands of images which need to be evaluated. It seems like he is pointing out here that this problem is unlikely to have a completely algorithmic solution, and if it does, the solution is probably not to spam the police with tens of thousands of criminal accusations against his customers that have never been vetted by a human.

Whether or not this is moral is irrelevant if it's not scalable. How about automated flagging of images for moderator review, and thinking about ways to reward or remunerate the moderators?

CV age detection should really be a thing, if it isn't already. Maybe there's an opportunity there if it's not already done, or way too hard?

I think this falls into the category of impossible. It is a hard enough problem for the human eye/brain. see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Traci_Lords
