They already exist on the iPhone. Take a nude. Try and use the cutout feature. Find that you’re absolutely not able to do it. Now find a non nude picture and use the cutout feature. Find that you can absolutely use it.

This stuff is already enacted right now on iPhone.

    Assuming the cutout feature works by AI and requires you send your photo to their server, it makes a lot of sense that Apple don't want you sending your nads to their server.

    No it’s processed on device. You can even try this with airplane mode. The cutout feature still works even for new photos taken while offline. There is on-device processing of nudes.
