Due to AI fakes, the “deep doubt” era is here
As AI deepfakes sow doubt in legitimate media, anyone can claim something didn't happen.
@arstechnica, the era started with the internet. If people now see it in AI, it is a different story, but it always has been there
@epistomai @arstechnica
The era of misinformation started much before Internet - with TV, radio, even newspapers... And even before tech, with gossip... What differs in AI-infested era, is that *anyone* can produce *huge* amounts of very real-looking fakes for almost *no cost*. IOW, where before you had to fight occasional disinformation from few actors, in the brave new world you'll soon have to swim through a ton of convincing fakes before encountering single piece of truth.
