I've seen a few examples of AI and Machine learning videos, like with the latest Twitch dude fiasco (Cant remember his name, because I honestly don't care) but the Joe Biden one Null posted made my jaw drop. Not only is the video quality good, but the speech has his inflections, his mannerisms, and style of speaking. It's incredible.
And it's fucking scary.
This will be abused. It probably already is. Glowies undoubtedly see it's potential. "Hey, the CIA needs more funding, Mr. President. Really hate to see a convincing video of you get released."
People with enemies see it's potential. In this age of viral videos, people share shit 5 seconds after viewing it without even checking to see if it's accurate. As long as it suits their opinion or agenda, or would get them likes/popularity.
Corporations are seeing dollar signs. "We can either market the software, market the software used to combat this, sell the data of the users, or use search engines to look for real or fake videos of our customers or employees."
It's long been said that information wars are more important than physical or cultural ones. Well this just threw a giant nuke into it.
Although if anyone ever makes a deep fake video of me clappin cheeks with Megan Thee Stallion and Lizzo in a threeway, I wouldn't be that opposed to it.
