Thats how propaganda works.
Six months between the deepfake audio and deepfake video. Hardly real time...yet.
What the really smart people at these deepfake AI companies fail to realize that the very success of their creations will lead to it being banned (fraud/public nuisance/etc.).
And it will also probably be the foundation of the movement to permanently neuter the more sophisticated applications of AI because they are too easily exploited for illegitimate purposes.
And please resist the temptation to say AI can never be used this way or that way in the real world... because tomorrow, or the day after, some other relatively unknown IT developer will show up to demonstrate that it can do precisely the things it is not supposed to be able to do.
Of course, there will be real money to be made by those software and hardware firms that will be able to detect deepfakes in real time and for those firms which can produce certified true video and audio recordings that cannot be deepfaked using AI. (Assuming that is even possible.)
Anyone with Adobe Illustrator could see that the Obama birth certificate was fake.
90% of the public probably still thinks it was real.
People are easily fooled by fake news.
Rumor has it there is some detailed video of certain Democrats in compromising positions with children. Jeff Epstein didn’t kill himself.
I think they are getting ready to expose lots on this very thing, that is why this is being brought out now.
Maybe so, but the public is easy to stampede with something like this. Create an emergency then roll out a video?
I’m kinda sick of “interesting”.
I think who you hang around with matters.
Most of the comedians he hangs with are also foul mouthed.
That may be true for now. I would counter that verification of authenticity is not as important as the media firestorm created by the release of the deep fake video. Look at the damage done to Nick Sandman, or any other fake news before any authentication is done. Peoples lives are ruined before they even have a chance to defend themselves.
Im confident that Adumb Schitt is funding this deep fake venture.

I'm retired from Verizon with 40 years in telecommunications. I've been saying for at least twenty years that we will get to a point that people will call Disney to make reservations at Disney World and talk directly to an animated Mickey Mouse taking all the information. The uses of this technology will be myriad without any bounds. Even some cloistered individuals will present to the world as they wish with no one seeing them face-to-face. It does not take a Futurist to recognise some trends.
