Comment on Defence force top brass shares fears about AI causing 'truth decay'

Are you fucking kidding me? The media/political apparatuses we have now are doing a fine job without AI. People already don’t know what truth is.

And it will only get worse

No, it will remain about the same. People will develop AI to combat AI and in the end we’ll still be bumbling about our days, believing whatever makes us feel all warm and tickly inside.

I think the landscape will be our current one but wildly exaggerated once convincing video fakes are cheaply available.
Even with AI spotting/detecting fakes, conspiracy minded folks will just dismiss those AI detections as tech/government/media suppressing the truth. Similarly, actual events can be dismissed as AI edited for the same reasons.
While this sort of exists for text already, people rarely fact check memes/ideas and video is a hell of a lot more convincing.
