ETA lmao i'm such an idiot I didn't know what a deep fake was

This is eerie as shit. Not just the deep fake but... "Just wait till what's coming next?" I'm very scared about what technology is going to do to the world lol

and a big problem is legislation is like 5-10 years behind tech innovation so there's no real regulations for a lot of this stuff until it's way too late.

same like i can only imagine what it’ll be like 10+ years from now esp since the world is moving away from critical thinking and truth and embracing conspiracy/fake stuff instead

[slinkydinks]

mte. People already have a hard enough time parsing reality from edited videos. I can't imagine how many deepfake conspiracy "proof" videos will be posted and shared around...

deepfakes are the number 1 example in my mind when people talk about tech students needing ethics classes and humanities courses in university.

I don’t doubt for one single second that deepfakes are going to be prevalent in pornography. I can just imagine how awful it’s going to get.

[vintage_boom]

they're already all over porn and have been for years unfortunately. it's now moving mainstream like this.
