On reddit people are discussing the very quick cementing of this new truth, where everything can retroactively be waved off as having been AI.

People talk about the loss of certainty on everything ever since AI became a significant factor.

I disagree, it would be pandemonium if everything needs double checking and nothing is real. I think there is an obvious solution:

Make it into law that any official statement is assumed true unless it’s redacted by the subject within a set amount of time.

Make it so people have an appeal window to any news outlet, with heavy consequences for platforms that do not redact.

We cannot be living in psychosis bizzarroland, and if Bibi says he’s alive then take the countries word for it.

Let’s say someone claims with a video that Trump is dead and replaced by a clone. Why would we allow for people to believe in that kind of nonsense which is obviously meant to divide people and turn a lot of them into crazies. If the administration would claim it’s untrue, then that should be published as truth using no uncertain terms: article x was deepfakes

Anyone who claims differently afterwards is perpetuating lies and should be held accountable

    Take the country’s word for it? Some of those politicians are the biggest liars of all! Trump, Putin, Netanyahu etc couldn’t lie straight in bed!

    If there are norms saying content is true until proven otherwise as you say… Welll… That can also be exploited the other way around. I swear it’s not me abusing those minors. It was AI. I swear no it’s not me cheating my partner, it’s AI. It’s not me caught saying something compromising over what I thought was a closed microphone, it was AI.

    I see what you are trying to do but this is a damned if you do, damned if you don’t kind of situation.

      Wild open access to vast reliable information has to be a social anomaly. I think the US will basically rewrite the Internet to promote national interest. It’s worked well for China. I think they can basically control the population with an app.

      Basically Internet becomes TV. It’s entertaining and could be educational, but it is mostly useful to help people find sales and remember to work hard and respect their financial betters.

      The Internet had scads of potential, still does, but imagine how radio enthusiasm changed from two way to broadcast communication.

      So, it’ll just be like the early ninties again? People had similar feelings about digital technology being easy to manipulate.

        An interesting theory and possible too. I’m a bit ignorant and I’m aware my skepticism is based on that gap knowledge, so here I ask: when did China implement these reforms? Was the Internet already widespread and part of everyone’s lives as it is today for most western countries? And with regards to radio, did we ever reach a point where everyone had access to radio for communication both ways 24/7, as is the case with internet today? What I’m trying to say is I don’t see a resource being reclaimed back, simply cut short just in time. Perhaps I’m too naive and hopeful but I don’t see the same happening as smoothly with internet today.

          Oh, it’s just bitter musing. I don’t think there’s intent or anything, just people trying to make money.

          I don’t think we had cheap enough electronics back in the day for it to be that widespread. However, before licensing (needed) you really could just build a radio and do whatever.

          I’m not sure I followed what you meant with the bit about a resource being claimed back. Could you talk a bit more about that?

            Open Internet and access to information is a resource, if government was to set limits on it it would be “claimed back” . Perhaps not the best choice of words when what I meant was take control, steal, appropriate, monopolize. But my point still stands. It’s easier to set norms with something while its userbase is too small and people are not familiar with something as part of their lives, than suddenly do so once it’s been integrated for years.

    I’m going to bet that he’s hiding somewhere, because he doesn’t want to end like the Khomeini or on trial. So his propaganda team put out rumors that he’s dead and then they released obviously fake videos to cause distractions and confusions, and then later they’re going to say no actually he’s dead with his family so the world forgets about them and they’re out free in their safe haven.

    In the end a specimen like him does not end zionism or it’s atrocities, there’s plenty others like him.

    This world has reached quite a level of absurdity. Me are no longer in the information age and have entered the age of disinformation.

    Okay, now, do any of you think it truly matters? The geopolitical objectives of the settler state of Israel, just like the settler collection of states called the USA, have always been known and strictly adhered to regardless of who’s the acting head scapegoat, right? Dead or not, Israelis, just like many Americans, are a bloodthirsty, amoral, sociopathic group of people. They could’ve been just regular white folks had they been raised in a different environment, maybe, but they weren’t and that’s the reality of things. Call me pessimistic if you want but I don’t think things will change with Satanyahu dead, just like things haven’t changed in the direction of American geopolitics (they’re just more restrained now [and at times more violent since the walls are closing in] because of the rising multipolar world and the fact that, being amoral and selfish beings, corruption [read: inefficiency] is on every level of government).
