When AI Can Fake Reality, Who Can You Trust? | Sam Gregory | TED
We’re fast approaching a world where widespread, hyper-realistic deepfakes lead us to dismiss reality, says technologist and human rights advocate Sam Gregory. What happens to democracy when we can’t trust what we see? Learn three key steps to protecting our ability to distinguish human from synthetic — and why fortifying our perception of truth is…

Any detector would greatly improve the quality of the deep fake as it would now have a realtime feedback system to train on. I appreciate that you included well just keep them out of the hands of the “bad guys”. That is never a successful strategy.

It is crazy in this day and age someone will champion scarcity and limiting access. Trust us! We are the elite frontline defender! Let us tell you what’s real what’s fake! Oh but you can’t use what we use, that’s classified. That sounds like the beginning of a keep-the-masses ignorant regime, all in the name of keeping the bad guys away from the tools. Guess what? When our defenders are not transparent and the tools they use are not transparent, we won’t know when/if they turned into our oppressors. No, thanks.

What if social media went away and you had to create your own website again? What if we only allowed independent journalists to hold press credentials? What if all “legacy broadcast technology” – local radio and TV – was taken from corporate hands and open-sourced with all content providers and voices having opportunity to broadcast? ————————— until fundamental structural changes are made in the “news media” it is best to assume everything is FAKE – that one politician who said that years ago looks very prophetic now
@rumfordc
December 26, 2023 at 3:37 pm
well it can’t fake reality, it can only fake things on our computer screens. so its simple: don’t trust anything you see through your computer screen. deepfakes are only a problem for the people who literally believed what they saw on TV or the internet (even though 100% of them would claim they don’t)

Maybe I think too simple or am missing the point, but wouldn’t it help just to be more sceptic and don’t take anything at face value? We can’t trust the news nowadays, but we never could.
That’s just something we have to accept. You can follow the news if you like, but don’t even think to assume that we are given information we are not supposed to know.

The problem is some governments are the very ones who use AI or allow it to be used nefariously. We can only rely on each others’ moral obligation for the betterment of the human race, sadly that is not happening and therefore there is no way to guard against total moral and ethical corruption in human propensity for deception.

We’ll just get another neural net to figure it out for us, because we have no clue how to deal with this problem with our own brains.” The fact that these conversations are starting this late to the punch and that this is the solution offered means we already fumbled this ball and trying to stop it will be like trying to plug the Titanic with the wine corks from behind the lounge bar. What an ugly future. Life could’ve been so simple man…

Huge error to make détection tools only available to journalists only. You don’t really think that bad actors won’t have access?? Some journalists maybe bad actors too. Bad actors will have access and you are just left in the false hope that your obfuscated tool(s) will be able to detect deep fakes.
It’s just a recipe to fall behind in detection efforts smh

Using an AI to test if something is AI generated. Sounds like this is a computer vs computer Turing test. That feels similar to a student using chat GPT to write a term paper. Teacher says not to use AI to write, then submits the paper to AI to grade and check for plagarism.

From the Transcript: “It’s getting harder to identify deepfakes.. What this means is that governments need to ensure that within this pipeline of responsibility for AI, there is transparency, accountability and liability.”
1. We knew the first part before we starting watching your video.
2. We knew the second part because of course this can only be combatted with transparency, accountability and liability.
3. YOU DIDN’T SAY EXACTLY WHAT SHOULD BE DONE!!!
I hate most TED talks because they talk about some obvious problem and then, at the end, provide useless generalized solutions. I don’t want useless generalized solutions. I WANT EXACT AND PARTICULARIZED SOLUTIONS.
Thanks for wasting my time, again, TED.

What is good about the problem of deep fakes? I am using Anthony Robbins’ question in one of his books about how to look at problems. The AI phenomenon is here to stay so what can we start doing today to insulate ourselves from getting conned? We must multiply our resources for everything we hear or see that is happening in the world around us. Yes; that’s right: instead of listening to only your favorite news channel, get in the habit of tuning into other news channels.
@tygorton
December 28, 2023 at 6:53 am
The world construct has been “faking” reality for a very, very long time already. The majority believe in a whole host of things and events that are, at baseline reality, nothing like what they’ve been told. As an example, many people went their entire lives 100% believing that oil came from dinosaur bones. Some people still believe this even though there is not one bit of truth in it; the term “fossil fuels” is still used. AI actually makes it tougher for the mainstream control grid because it has made people hyper aware that fakery is out there. More than likely what AI will cause is just people checking out entirely and concluding that “all of it is nonsense” rather than trying to weed out fact from fiction.

@ViolinistJeff
December 28, 2023 at 9:18 am
I´m not afraid of deepfake. It make take some time, but we will get used to the possibility of deepfake everywhere. It´s like when the modeling industry used extensive photoshopping to make women look too perfect. Some of us had to learn that that is an unrealistic standard of beauty and to never trust that what you see online is what it looks like in real life.
I predict that major video websites like Youtube, Facebook, Vimeo, etc. will have extensive and very accurate deepfake detection techniques and algorithms. As there is a check mark beside the channel name TED to help prove to you that this is the official TED talks channel, there will be a check mark beside the video to tell you whether it has been deepfaked or not.
But the detection methods of these websites will remain top secret to stop people from being able to get around them. Many aspects of Google and Youtube are already a secret.

I have thought about Artificial Intelligence and I think it would be constitutional and necessary to add one item to the US Public Law on Copyrights. Please just add a definition to the word AUTHORS to say, that Author is to be defined as Human. You must be human to copywrite something (even if created by a computer). That way any output from AI, (image, picture, song, voice, science, math) cannot be copyright , only a human can copyright the output, thus the copyright would apply to a person. Copyright law (Title 17, U.S.C.), does not define the word “author”, so just define it as Human.
Just as the Constitution gives the USA NO authority to dictate to any country the type of weapons they can Have. So be it with AI. The constitution and common sense tells you that you can not govern computer programming on a world basis. Or constitutionally within the USA.
We DO NOT need Government to regulate Computer Programming (AI). Big media and big government are just trying to scare people into giving up their liberty for some faux safety.
AI is a computer program and has no need of an “AI Bill Of Rights”. AI has No Rights. But the President of the United States already has the “Blue Print for An AI Bill of Rights”.

“We have to get this right”
We rarely do and the results of not doing so, in this case, are going to affect of lives, jobs and economies.
To be absolutely cliché, I feel a statement on chaos, similar to the one regarding the scientists in Jurassic Park, is needed. They are doing things that will affect us all without our vote, and that will inevitably be used nefariously because it can’t be controlled.

It’s a shame the “the only opinion that counts is mine” group used the “Fake news, lies, racism, ” etc to go after points of view they do not like. That killed the battle against true fakes. The Boy Who Cried Wolf tale is applicable here. As the battle against AI faltered due to this before it really ever got started. Governments insure? We have already seen “governments, political parties, bias government workers, will use this to target opposing ideas or people. Or, don’t say it, previous Twitter, Google, and Youtube. They went, and go after the message, not the authenticity. Try speaking on that. Unless you are bias that is.
