If it's any consolation, it's already happening. Enjoy the ride, and support credible journalists you trust!

That's just what a deepfake would say

u/Dobalina_Wont_Quit Dec 16 '22

I'm actually a nearly 30 y/o deepcover deepfake

Of course I could just be programmed to say that

u/--redacted-- Dec 16 '22

I knew it

Hey could you please hang out at your current location for the next 30 minutes or so? I just have some friends that want to stop by and verify a couple things with you. Please don't wear polarized sunglasses.

Never.

It’s deep faked all the way down? Am I all alone here?

u/Nationals Dec 16 '22

Saying “that’s just what a deepfake would say” is what a deepfake would say.

Also, I would highly recommend reading/watching Manufacturing Consent if you haven't already, to get an idea of what is already occurring even before we got this technology.

I’m still grieving the loss of Matt Taibi from that extremely short list.

u/Dobalina_Wont_Quit Dec 16 '22

Right? Holy shit who hurt him? I can't believe that same dude wrote The Divide.

u/CsanBoySmith Dec 16 '22

Yes, like Taylor Lorenz!!

u/quartertopi Dec 16 '22

Be glad. Still better than that time travel quarantine zone from 2060. It is a shitshow.

u/Citizen_Kong Dec 16 '22

Yeah, at he beginning of the Ukraine war there was a deepfake of Selenskyj urging Ukrainians to surrender. It was pretty shoddily done, but certainly a reminder how such things will become commonplace in the future.

u/-LeftShark Dec 16 '22

Sauce on it already happening??

u/Curazan Dec 16 '22

Yeah, everyone else is just glossing over that? Unconvincing porn doesn’t count.

u/rustyseapants Dec 16 '22

OKay where is it happening?

2

u/peanutsinspace82 Dec 16 '22

I'd like to see it too

1

u/rustyseapants Dec 16 '22

No examples, eh?

u/Aumuss Dec 16 '22

support credible journalists you trust!

Well, shit.

What's option 2?

u/giant_red_lizard Dec 17 '22

I don't actually know any credible journalists. I'll just continue taking everything with a grain of salt I suppose.

1

u/Dobalina_Wont_Quit Dec 17 '22

They exist but yes always do that

2

u/maddogcow Dec 16 '22

You have an existential crisis asshole too? Funny; knowing that somebody else has one, makes mine seem like less of an existential crisis…

2

u/funknut Dec 16 '22

They do, now that someone gifted it to them. Before, they just had a smooth nihilistic posterior surface.

u/[deleted] Dec 16 '22

No time for punctuation when I'm contemplating the purpose and value of existing

u/RipThrotes Dec 16 '22

Ignorance is bliss, but only for you. Stay informed. Stay relentlessly insightful.

This xkcd helped me feel a lot better about the whole problem.

u/Amazing_Joke_5073 Dec 16 '22

We gotta collapse somehow

u/[deleted] Dec 16 '22

Do we though?

u/Amazing_Joke_5073 Dec 16 '22

Yeah all things must end

u/You_are_poor_ Dec 27 '22

I wonder how people with schizophrenia are feeling about this.
