I don't understand why people think the ability to clone people into videos will have more of an effect than the ability to clone people into photos has hadhttps://motherboard.vice.com/en_us/article/bjye8a/reddit-fake-porn-app-daisy-ridley …

currently, yeah, but won't we just stop thinking that way once this is sufficiently prevalent?
-
Hearing something and seeing it animated are just more convincing than a still photo as well. It's subconscious hacking. Like how words rhyming makes them more convincing.

plenty still think this way about images probably. like there's tons of people who didn't grow up in online communities where such things were everyday, and...
-
...so don't have the "is this a shop" reflex, but there's still many esp older people who still haven't integrated into their model of reality that such things are possible
-
the "takes for granted" thing is important in that it's experiential and more feeling than reasoning, like I'm sure fake audio/video is intensely disturbing to many, not simply troubling
-
and the moral panic types writing about this stuff operate off that feeling of wrongness, the fear of it
-
because the thing they always forget is authoritative audio/video has barely existed for more than a century and we got along fine before it

people pass around screenshots of tweets as proof of some thing or another. i’m not sure that difficulty of faking factors in terribly often
-
I think how screenshotted tweets are treated varies by community. I don't take them at face value unless vouched by someone reasonably trustworthy (and even this carries risk). But epistemic standards are different on, like, /r/conspiracy or whatever

If anyone feels like they need proof of this, I invite you to search YouTube for flat earth videos, none of which make a lick of sense.
