It's fantastic to see how far this tech came in such a short time. It's also scary, because soon it will be very dificult to trust anything you see in video. W

  There's still tells. 80% realism is still far enough away to be unrealistic. There's lots of places it breaks. I think soon is still at least 20 years away. And 20 years away in technology is basically never. Reality is very very detailed and we've been optimized in our evolution to get to that fine grit quickly. It doesn't entirely apply, but here's an article (one of many) on telling deep fakes: https://www.howtogeek.com/341469/how-to-spot-a-deep-fake-face-swapped-video/ https://www.howtogeek.com/341469/how-to-spot-a-deep-fake-fac...

  I would argue it's a good thing. This was already possible for people with a lot of money, but nobody knew about it because it was so rarely done. When anyone can do it, these fake videos will become common and people will realize you can't trust it just because it's in a video. The only drawback is that there will be an awkward period where smart people can do it but most people can't, so nobody realizes what's going on.
