I would equate this with a form of extreme slander, so your inference is wrong. They aren't a problem because they are real, they are a problem because they can be passed off as real, and the issue is in the reputational damage. I'm not saying there's a good solution but I don't think the problem should be dismissed so easily.
- johngladtj 2y agoThere is no slander here because there is no expectation that those are the actual people doing it.
- CoastalCoder 2y agoIANAL, but I'm curious: could watermarking (or prefacing) such videos with a "deepfake" indicator diffuse the slander liability?
- Ferret7446 2y agoBut if they were not yet passed off as real, is it pre-crime? If I create a satirical fictional work about someone, is it "extreme slander" because a portion can be taken out of context and presented as real? Should my work be preemptively censored?
