“None of this works without… responsibility” If there’s anything that defines modern politics and media, it’s “responsibility” 🙄 We’re doomed
-
There will always be a segment of our society who will believe anything they see or hear without filtering out the nonsense, but even for the rest of us who are more skeptical and reasoning, it will get harder and harder to sort fact from fiction. Can more technology protect us from the technology? That remains to be seen.

A close friend of mine recently had her voice faked in an audio on Facebook. Her FB account was hacked, and the scammer was reaching out to every single one of her friends trying to get personal banking information. I have to say, it sounded exactly like her.
-
In a world where the difference between beliefs and facts are eroding, people disappear into their filter bubbles this is worrying.
-
More than simply AI images is the problem with how used to so many little distortions we've gotten used to in our daily lives. Filters, editing, suspension of disbelief, lifestyle bloggers and influencers that glamorize their lives to make them look way better than they actually are; heck, our own cognitive biases that distort our memories of events. The painful truth is we often don't want to see reality, because life can be so terrible sometimes.
-
The AI detection tools need to be democratised. We can't have one agency that just says trust me bro it fake, or trust me bro it's real.
-
What about an open source collection of software that can be maintained by the crowd and made available to everyone?
-
The problem is some governments are the very ones who use AI or allow it to be used nefariously. We can only rely on each others' moral obligation for the betterment of the human race, sadly that is not happening and therefore there is no way to guard against total moral and ethical corruption in human propensity for deception.
-
one of the work around is the file must have to include the machine and chipset that process the file in block chain technology plus encryption to conceal some of the real important info for privacy and scurity.
-
Thank you Sam. Been following 'Prepare Don't Panic' campaign for several years and show your videos to my university communications students.
-
Any detector would greatly improve the quality of the deep fake as it would now have a realtime feedback system to train on. I appreciate that you included well just keep them out of the hands of the “bad guys”. That is never a successful strategy.
-
Taking a step back and reading between the lines always work for me, at least until now
-
here's a great solution. push all the power buttons to off. Go for a walk in the woods, remember the woods?
-
It is dangerous to believe everything you see. It is also dangerous to believe nothing at all. The challenge is finding that balance.
-
I missed the part where you told us how we achieve anything without ultimately putting all power to proclaim what is real in the hands of some group of people.
-
Cat is already well out of the bag and it’s a little too late.
-
I got an ad for an AI program that “helps “study aquatic biology somehow. Good timing.
-
Can you guys ask the AI robots which appearance style they find more appealing, humanoid or like a comical toy or mechanical or like a pet animal? Do they even have a preference? Does it bother some of them that the wiring is showing or parts not complete?
-
This subject reminds me of certain episodes of Star Trek voyager when the holographic computer doctor made his holodeck drama. What the rights were and why? Here we are… lol

Plot twist, humanity that created AI Already , HUMANS ALREADY, HAS A MASSIVE ISSUE WITH ACCEPTIN REALITY
