What can we now believe?

I like Sean Tucker am moving to the view that the greatest threat from the current crop of large-scale neural networks, which currently indiscriminately scrap the internet for their training data, is that they will destroy the potential credibility of everything on the internet. Particularly the veracity of photographs.

  

Yet, I also agree that at least some people will appreciate the real. "We'll always want to know whether what we are looking at is real or not and justice like with Photoshop and CGI will come up with systems and rules to differentiate where it counts." Fingers crossed.
