So how will any progressive politician be able to be elected then? Because all the fascists would have to do is generate porn with their opponent's likeness to smear them.
Or even worse, deepfake evidence of rape.
Or even worse than that, generate CSAM with their likeness portrayed abusing a child.
They could use that to imprison not only their political opponents, but anyone for anything, and people would think whoever is being disappeared this week actually is a pedophile or a rapist and think nothing of it.
Actual victims' movements would be chopped off at the knee, because now there's no definitive way to prove an actual rape happened since defendants could credibly claim real videos are just AI generated crap and get acquitted. No rape or abuse claims would ever be believed because there is now no way to establish objective truth.
This would leave the fascists open to do whatever they want to anybody with no serious consequences.
But no one cares because they want AI to do their homework for them so they don't have to think, write, or learn to be creative on their own. They want to sit around on their asses and do nothing.
People will have to learn to stop believing everything they see. This has been possible with Photoshop for even more than a decade now. All that's changed is that it takes less skill and time now.
That's not possible with AI-generated images impossible to distinguish from reality, or even expertly done photoshops. The practice, and generative AI as a whole, needs to be banned. They're putting AI in photoshop too so ban that garbage too.
It has to stop. We can't allow the tech industry to enable fascism and propaganda.
Can't tell whether this is bait or if you are seriously that much of a Luddite.
Oh look at that, they just released pictures of you raping a 4-year-old, off to prison with you. Never mind they're not real. That's the world you wanted and those are the consequences you're going to get if you don't stop being lazy and learn to reject terrible things on ethical grounds.
