People need to be more media litterate and more skeptical of news stories instead of taking them at face value, regardless of Deepfakery. So many articles that pass as "news" are filled with opinion and adjectives designed to ellicit an emotional response.
People need to learn to look at a piece of information and ask questions.
- Who wants me to be reading this?
- What emotions (if any) is this trying to ellicit?
- What objective information can be taken from this story?
- What are the sources for that objective information? Are they reliable?
Etc. Etc. Etc.
Even a Fox News article can have some insight into the goings on if you can parse the information from the spin. Deepfakes are just going to be another level of spin, but if people are informed enough, they'll be able to logically differentiate between a real news story and a damning fake video.
However, that doesnt solve the age old problem of willfully ignorant people and the confirmation bias...
You're not wrong, but your suggestion is completely disconnected from reality. You cannot fix any problem in the world by appealing to the potential in people to behave intelligently and rationally. As a group, they never will. As a group, they are monkeys without tails, incapable of rational thought and behavior.
Don't you mean 'we'? Unless you don't consider yourself human.
Jesus Christ, buddy.
Wait, there's a religious spin on this?
Deepfake Revelations videos or something?
I guess you're right. Might as well give up now, put zero effort into making anything better, and simply wallow in my own smug pessimism.
