I am hoping that AI tooling like this becomes even more widespread (Google Photos is doing that) that more people will finally understand that they cannot trust everything they see online. I hope.
- pjc50 3y agoThat is not an improvement, because it turns "online" (which is basically everything everywhere - all news media, TV, newspapers) into a politically useless wasteland.
- tdehnel 3y agoIt could just as well be an improvement that makes people smarter, because they will learn not to just believe what they see/hear/read. Instead, they will have to learn to identify good explanations and rule out bad explanations.
- lolinder 3y ago"Online" is already a useless, trustless wasteland and has been since at least 2014. If this causes people to finally see it then maybe we can collectively build something better.

- denton-scratch 3y agoIt's not “you can’t trust anything”. It's "you can’t trust anything you're told”. And that's nothing new. We have been lying since we figured out how to talk. The sky is not falling.
