But it’s irrelevant. You can watermark all you want in the algorithms you control, but it doesn’t change the underlying fact that pictures have been capable of lying for years.
People just recognizing that a picture is not evidence of anything is better.

Yes, but reason why people dont already consider pictures irrelevant is that it takes time and effort to manipulate a picture. With ai not only is it fast it can be automated. Of course you shouldnt accept something so unreliable as legal evidence but this will spill over to everything else too

It doesn’t matter. Any time there are any stakes at all (and plenty of times there aren’t), there’s someone who will do the work.

It doesnt matter if you cant trust anything you see? What if you couldn’t be sure if you weren’t talking to bot right now?

Photos/video from unknown sources have already been completely worthless as evidence for a solid decade. This does not change that reality in any way.
The only thing changing is your awareness that they’re not credible.
