Deliberate Deception

It appears MSNBC gave Alex Pretti a tan, a stronger jawline, better teeth, shorter forehead, and a nose job to make him look hotter for the AWFLs. They broadened his shoulders, thickened his neck, and gave him biceps.

Since they engaged in this deliberate deception you can be sure there are other deceptions in their reporting of their narrative.

Legacy Media Liars.

AI makes deception so much easier. The videos being produced are of amazing quality. Reality was already tough to discern. The current technology could make it nearly impossible to determine truth from falsity. It would require security certificates from source to viewer, a chain of custody, for recording devices with images and/or sound to come close having a chance of being actually true.

This is very scary stuff.

  1. Almost all developments in technology have decades of “what if” sci fi musings on the topic, and this one is no exception.

    It is likely that the “big truths” will still be fairly easy to find, *if you want to*. Allowing yourself to be fooled for something you want to believe will continue to get easier – it will soon be as easy to fool yourself as it has been for most of human history. (blarg)

    The “big things” will have many shots from many angles, under many different ownerships, and they will be posted live or nearly so. With AI, that “live or nearly so” doesn’t help as much as it did even 2 years ago, but the “under many ownerships” does. With timestamps for the publishing, people who WANT the truth will be able to check against all the different people’s posting of the same event and tell which ones were faked or manipulated in any significant way.

    But that doesn’t help nearly as much with the “crime in my neighborhood”, “the police beat somebody and I’m the only witness”, and other such “less than big” things, where numerous recordings would be weird or even suspicious. Those are going to be hard. Police body cam footage will need to be uploaded multiple somewheres and made available very, very quickly (like, as soon as they get off shift or so), or some other VERY hard to manipulate/fake methodology, *including by the police themselves*, if they want that to remain trustworthy.

    The only (sort of) advantage of this kind of thing is how easy it has become for *everyone* to be “the watchers”, so that “who watches the watchers” is bloody well everyone watching each other.
