It scares me a bit that AI has been so destabilizing so quickly, such a tool for a would be "axis of upheaval" or smaller antagonists to help inflame and agitated the world. And it scares me just as much what the ever-so likely "someone has to do something about this" reactions will be. There's thoughts floating around like Originator Profile & Content Authenticity, which seems like voluntarily ways to start letting sites vouch for their content, and that seems ok, let's sites create verifiable statements... https://github.com/w3c/tpac2024-breakouts/issues/70 https://github.com/w3c/tpac2024-breakouts/issues/70 https://github.com/w3c/tpac2024-breakouts/issues/90 https://github.com/w3c/tpac2024-breakouts/issues/90 ..but it feels like there is a rapidly growing angst about mis and disinformation. And that eventually some nations are going to start demanding truth, and only truth, online. And it feels implausible except by letting only very few speak at all. Trying to enforce stability seems almost the bigger danger than letting things play out organically, than letting society tangle and mete with this info-chaos organically. It also bothers me that HN seems to be sweeping these issues with AI under the rug. It feels like many of these deepfake articles almost immediately get flagged. Yesterday the article on AI generated image of Trump in blue-jeans walking through flood water being widely shared for flagged quite quickly too. This is so what the current moment of technology & it's role in society is, right here, and malfeasants projecting their petty narrow view via suppression seem to be winning the day already. https://futurism.com/the-byte/donald-trump-hurricane-ai https://futurism.com/the-byte/donald-trump-hurricane-ai
