Comment on Leica camera has built-in defense against misleading AI, costs $9,125

5.1, 5.2, 5.3, 5.5, and 5.6 all require basically universal adoption for this to at all be useful. And 5.4 and 5.7 (as well as many of the rest) already fall apart once you realize this is metadata that people have to opt in to keeping. 5.4 in particular feels like it is prone to breaking if there are edits in a video for flow or to remove sensitive information.
Much like “The Blockchain” and NFTs, this sort of touches on an issue but is a horrendously bad and pointless implementation.

I don’t quite get why some of those cases require universal adoption. News photos: You just need one big news company to say “we’re giving all our photographers a camera with this tech” and then it serves its purpose.
You see a headline “SHOCKING photo published by MegaNewsCorp will send you into a coma!” then you can validate that it came from a MegaNewsCorp photographer. If you trust MegaNewsCorp, then the tech has done its job. If you didn’t trust MegaNewsCorp already, then this tech changes nothing. I think there is moderate value in that, overall.
The story of this tech is getting picked up and thrown around by bad tech journalism, being game-of-telephone’d into some kind of game changer.

… I literally just explained that a lot of those photos are crowd sourced. Which gets back to needing more or less universal adoption. And even then: Maybe I’ll give CNN a picture of a republican beating a child if I can strip the metadata. I am not giving that if it is going to trace back to me.

So then news orgs who care about provenance have to stop copying social media posts and treating them like well-researched journalism. Seems like a win to me.

Sure. That is what is happening…
