No, no one can be trusted. I consider myself a Stable Diffusion "enthusiast" and was messing with GANs before that, and I know I can't tell if an image is fake or manipulated, even while staring at it blown up. Video has some temporal/encoding tells but will be the same way soon. This is not something one can "vaccine" themself against, I just have to have some faith in semi credible sources.
And if you really trust nothing on the internet... that is a dark road. Thats how you get into insular extremist echo chambers.
