Perfect is the enemy of good, as always.
Say I claim that Donald Trump is the love-child of Barack Obama and George Bush, born through the help of alien technology, and has only lived for a few years prior to becoming president. We should rise up and bring back our lovely innocent miracle-child, because aliens know best.
Now say this gets picked up seriously, by people in the millions. Riots start because of it. Maybe a capital building gets invaded.
Why in the world wouldn't we try to stop it from getting worse?
(this is not in any way meant to claim that I think "modern AI" is a solution here. or that I have a solution. but I do think looking for techniques is a reasonable thing to do)
