>The real problem with deep fakes isn't the deep fakes themselves though. We're still able to spot those AND train AI to spot the other AI's fakes.
For now. I see this being the next major technological arms race. The real problem is, we consider recordings to be secure and reliable (in that tampering with a recording leaves clear traces most of the time). Deep fakes remove this certainty. Can you trust the video? Can you trust the people who insist it's real? Can you trust the ones who insist it's fake? Will the average person ever be able to independently verify?
What if someone actually does deep fake Trump? Our existing political views will largely determine whether or not we believe it.
