The only tangible proof that Trump is real are ‘truthful’ comments about how he needs to have his diapers changed regularly. He’s talking Shit from all directions.
You can tell they’re AI images if you know what to look for but most people won’t be aware though. It’s inevitably going to need to have some kind of regulation introduced in the long-term.
We’re going to need watermarks put on by cameras to verify photos that are real it’s the only way and afaict there’s no even plans for it.BBC News - Trump supporters target black voters with faked AI images

Couple of months ago I realised that my general feeling towards any content has shifted to “fake” first, be it AI, photoshop, or things acted as if they’re normal TikTok or whatever videos but scripted. Now I assume everything on social media is fake until I see solid proof. And even then find myself getting caught out. One thing Twitter is pretty good at is community notes but it’s very hit and miss. But having a fact check right there has stopped a lot of misinformation in its tracks with me, I’ll even start telling the missus about it only to scroll down and realise I’ve been had.
Trying to play “who is the most senile” as the defining reason for the job of President of the US is truly a race to the bottom.
In Trumps case also it’s not entirely relevant. His base will remain loyal and are far more likely to stick with him than Biden voters.
Biden seems to be aging every day. It’s incredible someone can’t advise him to step aside.
Who else is there? I genuinely wouldn’t know and it’s surely too late in the day to put someone else up against Trump?
I had hopes for Harris but she seems to be pretty much hated.
Don't wish to sound controversial, but I think we are all aging every day.
Just look in the mirror and check your birthday certificate.
You are right though, Biden really should step aside. He'd be 82 if he got back into office and 86 by the end of his tenure.
He's definitely slowing down.
I think as a rough rule of thumb on the whole black voters in the US are smarter than white voters. I doubt any amount of AI is going to convince the majority of black voters that Trump isn’t racist. The MGA cult on the other hand…
yeah. I don't think many blacks will vote for Trump instead. I think Biden's biggest problem is that they won't go out to vote at all.
I wonder whether it will be linked to misuse of images/image rights. As soon as people start getting sued for the fake videos without disclosing it’s fake, it will make people think twice
The problem in the meantime is due to the algorithms most people on social media live in some sort of echo chamber so don’t question what they are seeing as it fits in with their own beliefs/narratives….quite scary times really
A horrific choice for the country and the wider world, although I still think Biden is the least worst option.
Republicans appear too scared of trump or being seen to go against him. I’m not quite sure what the reasoning is on the Democrats side
I think the best we could manage is harsh sanctions for political parties that engage in it. But you’re never going to stop someone typing “Tories eating babies” or “Gary Linkear shagging immigrants” into an image generator.
I worry about people who already can’t spot basic internet frauds just from text, I’m not sure how much worse it can get. I’d hope people who already understand information will adapt to just not trusting anything straight away.
Interesting times.
Yeah let’s maybe not do this
I just typed in "Linekar shags immigrants" on Google and nothing came up.
Give it a year.
Yup. Good job we're a shining beacon over here, innit.
To be fair Otis, as bad as things are I thing we're nowhere near that level of fuckery, but give it 5 or 10 years...

I can't see how it can be regulated especially considering that it is an international problem.
I don't think posting a few clips on a football forum in the UK is going to have any impact on the US election!
I agree.
Though to be fair to the tories, not words youll hear from me often, when the AI with Starmer arrogantly bolocking someone went round they called it out straight away.
I can't see that happening in the States
Yup, exactly my worry. I think we are heading that way.
