 fake people problem


Do we have a fake people problem?

#artificialintelligence

Why would I hire a supermodel if I can randomly generate someone new? Why would I buy a stock photo when I can auto-generate one? Any scene, with or without people, the same AI that generates fake people can auto-generate fake houses, fake cities, fake situations, fake pets, fake disputes, fake arguments, fake injuries, and fake police responding to whatever fake stuff supposedly happened. Not only can AI create realistic videos of people doing and saying things they'd never say or do in real life, it can add convincing human faces that never existed in the first place. We are about to become deluged with tons of fake testimonials hoping to persuade us to buy some new product or service.
