Creative things doesn’t matter if scammers and manipulators gonna get this. Internet will stop being a source of information again because it will be 70%-80% lies. It’ll become only entertaining area and source for hysteria, of course. On TV you at least know who made it and what % of truth to expect.

Feels like these disruptive technologies exist for the purpose of instituting dystopian “reactions” that restrict you to an even deeper grid. Manufacturing consent for mandatory digital identification.

I really donβt see the point in deep fake technology. Yeah I guess Iβll be good for films but I donβt think thatβs worth the harm itβs gonna cause. When did we stop making technology to make life easier?

Yes we should be worried, we already have completely differing interpretations of reality fuelled by social media echo chambers and deepening divisions in society as a result which could be just the start.

People talking like Photoshop never existed, we already been living in a world where we can’t trust our eyes, female models on magazines with legs longer then 1,50meters have been around forever, social media beauty filters, no one bothers. The problems are not the tools, it is that people don’t care to know and they follow the leader

No.

AI can also tell if something is real or a deepfake, so there’s that.

Anything on a screen will/should be heavily discounted, but will that extend to phone calls? Is the world going to increasingly be divided between those who fall for the fakes and skeptics who trust almost nothing?

You have done nothing of any positive use …. And your justification of the deep fake situation as being out of your hands, inevitable & unstoppable only go to prove how far gone you are as a person. Literally how can you even sleep at night?

So it needs to be dealt with at an industry level, with a set of laws and regulations that ensure the people producing media are making it really clear when something is AI-generated. And that the people who consume media have recourse when something fake gets through the cracks.

mmm actually I do not freak out. I’m old enough to have read the same comments back in the 90ies when Internet went viral. And same story when social networks were launched a decade after. That said, AI needs to be integrated in our societies, respecting laws and a certain level of morality.

Ain’t AI kind of old hat? Obviously, Daniel F. Galouye (Simulacron-3 / Cinematisation: World on a Wire, The 13th Floor, Matrix Trilogy) and Cyril M. Kornbluth (The Marching Morons) were way ahead of their time! How about Huxley and Orwell? We should’ve known much better, right?!

I don’t see any prob with this tech is the content is appropriately labeled. If there is a problem with this tool, then what about Photoshop?
