Hmm. Somehow deepfake tech doesn’t worry me. Photography and the wysiwyg conditioning around images is only 150 years old. Before that paintings were obviously a fiction genre. We’ll easily de-condition. This is just an uninvention of a young invention.

Strongly disagree with this sentiment. IMO many of the gains in civil rights of the last 20 years in the US and elsewhere are due to cheap ubiquitous cameras. Rodney King was 1991. Sabrina Harman's camera at Abu Ghraib, no film to develop there. Immoral technology to make.
