A senior Trump advisor shared a video that seems to show an NBC reporter badmouthing Republican presidential candidates. It appears AI was used to imitate the reporter’s voice.
It will be interesting what this form of yellow journalism will look like in a few short years…
I have a feeling it will be quick and nasty. Deep fakes aren’t just behind a door, it’s a floodgate waiting to be opened.
Also works both ways making it even worse. Actually catch someone saying something abhorrent on a hot mic? It was AI, I swear.
Not sure if it’s an even fight. There’s actual video of Trump saying any number of disgusting (or even non-republican things, like that time he proposed to take people’s guns without due process), and it’s not affecting his support.
Yeah, in the specific case of Trump. Someone much more savvy at not screwing up/not getting caught is bound to use the excuse successfully eventually.
That’s what happens when you let the already rich and powerful control the entire system: they get away with anything up to and including “shooting a guy in the middle of Fifth Avenue”.
Don’t demand. Sue.
First demand, then sue. Can’t get the suit to court if you can’t show that you tried asking first.
That’s not true. You don’t have to ask someone to stop committing defamation before suing them for defamation.
