It's way more feasible to simply require social media sites to do the verification and display something like a blue check on verified videos.
This is actually a really good idea. Sure there will still be deepfakes out there, but at least a deepfake that claims to be from a trusted source can be removed relatively easily.
Theoretically a social media site could boost content that was verified over content that isn't, but that would require social media sites to not be bad actors, which I don't have a lot of hope in.
I agree that it’s a good idea. But the people most swayed by deepfakes of Biden are definitely the least concerned with whether their bogeyman, the “deep state” has verified them
Yeah it's not going to change the mind of the folks making the deepfakes.
