I think the opposite will happen - it is very ease with which these photo realistic images are created which will cause us all to (rightly) doubt their veracity. Everyone is going to get a cornstar image, none of us will believe it be true and we'll learn to dismiss it

- SlickNixon 4y agoThe world is filled with falsehoods that were instantly and uncritically taken as truths by susceptible segments of the population. Photos are admittedly different (text is slippery when it comes to true or false; there's a binary quality to the presence of a naked woman) but if the fake photo gets 100,000 views, and the "actually, it's fake" follow-up gets 100, it's a heavy lift for the latter to epistemically triumph over the former.
