Rise of fake AI content

We have unofficially entered the time of the fake AI generated content. It's not perfect yet, but it's good enough to fool many people. I use a YouTube alternative, which means I have more time to watch videos across a wide range. In the last few weeks, I've noticed an increase in AI generated product that is fake. One standout is the Got Talent franchise where people have grafted AI generated acts with cuts from responses from the panel. They look great, like a woman transforming into a lion, but it's all fake. Even some of those cute animal videos are now fake. Why? More clicks so more income all based on fabricated videos.

This means that from now on if you want to know if something is real or not, you will need to independently verify it in some way. This also starts the age of greater manipulation of audiences through video. The phrase "seeing is believing" becomes less relevant. Gone are the six fingers and strange ears that immediately flagged a fake, and a much closer look for anomalies is required for detection. Synchronisation of the mouth and speech is one such area, but I predict that all of these anomalies will be gone in the next six months, and you won't be able to trust anything you see. Also, regular real contributors sometimes get the sound sync issue wrong. They can easily simulate voices so that Joe Rogan fake clips are now circulating, as one example. Soon, unless you are watching the actual shows, you won't be able to tell if it's real or fake.
