I guess we'll have to take everything with a grain of salt from now on as any evidence can be faked with AI. I'm likely naive since I don't understand what the point of faking this was. Clout chasing? Monetizing this somehow?

In this case, "cloud chasing".

Can be to validate the technology before using it for something more nefarious.

  I think it's validation. Consider if you were wanting to perfect AI to be very hard to distinguish, what better way than to crowd source it by putting on social media? The fear is when it's perfect and someone puts you in the middle of a very illegal situation; prove it wasn't you.

At least in the US, while the law is followed, this is not legal, the State will have to prove it wasn't AI. They're required to assume it's not you, and prove that it is. The system is flawed of course and I'm not saying it always plays out like this in the real world, but the more we remember and repeat the laws they are supposed to follow, I think anyway, the greater chance we can hold those in power to the laws to which they are supposed to be held

Imagine capturing a crime on camera. And then having the court toss this as inadmissible evidence. Fun times ahead !

Yeah, I think I read recently that they were going to release video proof that Epstein offed himself. The cynical part of me was thinking how convenient the timing was with how awesome video AI has become, and saddened that in general I can't really take video as proof anymore.
