1 00:00:21,183 --> 00:00:27,183 S1: Discussing Trump shared a fake image. Oh. Oh man, I 2 00:00:27,183 --> 00:00:29,853 S1: didn't put the link. I just got an email about this. 3 00:00:29,853 --> 00:00:36,273 S1: Didn't put the link. Oh, man. Whatever fake image of 4 00:00:36,273 --> 00:00:39,453 S1: Harris speaking at a communist event. All right, let me 5 00:00:39,483 --> 00:00:57,933 S1: let me find this thing. Trump. Share. See? Yeah, look 6 00:00:57,933 --> 00:01:05,583 S1: at that. Look at that. I mean, does anyone think 7 00:01:05,583 --> 00:01:07,803 S1: she would actually go to an event like that? Well, 8 00:01:07,833 --> 00:01:09,993 S1: first of all, yeah, this this is what I said 9 00:01:10,023 --> 00:01:14,643 S1: actually in the piece, right? Um, one, lots of people 10 00:01:14,643 --> 00:01:17,643 S1: will believe it's real. And two, current tech can already 11 00:01:17,643 --> 00:01:20,673 S1: make more believable ones than this. So this isn't the 12 00:01:20,673 --> 00:01:26,083 S1: actual problem. The actual problem is when it gets much worse. Um. Oh, 13 00:01:26,113 --> 00:01:30,703 S1: here's the other one that they were sharing. Um, watch 14 00:01:30,703 --> 00:01:43,003 S1: this one. Trump share Taylor Swift. Should be enough, right? 15 00:01:50,203 --> 00:02:07,123 S1: No links. Yeah. Look at this. Look at this. So 16 00:02:07,123 --> 00:02:09,253 S1: we've been talking about for years. I went looking for 17 00:02:09,253 --> 00:02:11,023 S1: this post where I first started talking about this. I 18 00:02:11,023 --> 00:02:14,923 S1: couldn't find it. So. Beehive, fix your search, please. Uh, 19 00:02:14,953 --> 00:02:18,493 S1: couldn't find it with Google either, so that kind of annoying. Anyway, 20 00:02:19,303 --> 00:02:23,443 S1: I wrote about basically deep fakes becoming an issue because 21 00:02:23,443 --> 00:02:25,763 S1: we're not going to be able to believe things. It's 22 00:02:25,763 --> 00:02:28,283 S1: so obvious now. It's not even a good post, but 23 00:02:28,283 --> 00:02:31,403 S1: it was very early. This was like two years ago. 24 00:02:31,763 --> 00:02:36,983 S1: I was talking about this. Um, but anyway, everyone knows now. Uh, 25 00:02:36,983 --> 00:02:43,133 S1: and here is the actual. It's just now starting to matter. Okay, 26 00:02:43,223 --> 00:02:46,043 S1: look at this picture. The top right one that looks 27 00:02:46,043 --> 00:02:48,953 S1: like an actual, like event. This person's got his phone. 28 00:02:48,953 --> 00:02:52,283 S1: He's got his foot sticking out. That looks super real. 29 00:02:52,283 --> 00:02:58,973 S1: Super real Swifties for Trump. Now, you don't be funny 30 00:02:58,973 --> 00:03:02,123 S1: is if that was if that was was actually real 31 00:03:02,123 --> 00:03:07,673 S1: like some okay the bottom left definitely not real okay. 32 00:03:08,033 --> 00:03:10,793 S1: They're probably none of these are probably real. Just to 33 00:03:10,823 --> 00:03:15,323 S1: be very clear about, you know, disinformation or whatever. But, um, 34 00:03:15,323 --> 00:03:17,393 S1: the point is you can make these. Oh, yeah, this 35 00:03:17,393 --> 00:03:20,843 S1: bottom right one also looks super real. The bottom left 36 00:03:20,843 --> 00:03:26,783 S1: one does not because that Swifties for Trump looks like 37 00:03:26,783 --> 00:03:30,453 S1: To clear, like the white of the text just looks 38 00:03:30,453 --> 00:03:33,663 S1: a little bit too artificial. But this one Swifties for 39 00:03:33,663 --> 00:03:37,503 S1: Trump it's got shadow on it. The T is hidden 40 00:03:37,533 --> 00:03:40,323 S1: because it's on the other side of her body, so 41 00:03:40,323 --> 00:03:44,943 S1: that one looks real. It's actually the same person as this. Honestly, 42 00:03:46,173 --> 00:03:49,323 S1: these two look really, really good that that would trick 43 00:03:49,323 --> 00:03:56,553 S1: basically anybody, including me right now. So the point is, 44 00:03:56,553 --> 00:03:59,013 S1: these are getting so good that you can't tell the 45 00:03:59,013 --> 00:04:06,063 S1: difference between reality and doesn't really matter for this right now. Um, 46 00:04:06,063 --> 00:04:10,503 S1: this one maybe kind of does. The question is what 47 00:04:10,503 --> 00:04:13,473 S1: happens when it's a thing that really matters? Like did 48 00:04:13,473 --> 00:04:18,633 S1: a crime actually occur? Um, who is the assailant? Uh, 49 00:04:18,633 --> 00:04:22,803 S1: evidence of something bad happening? Where? Where we're going to 50 00:04:22,803 --> 00:04:26,253 S1: use pictures or video as part of the evidence for 51 00:04:26,283 --> 00:04:29,693 S1: that crime. That's when it starts to really, really matter. 52 00:04:29,693 --> 00:04:33,623 S1: And also for politics as well. Um, the worst possible 53 00:04:33,623 --> 00:04:39,503 S1: one is, is like the absolute worst one is where 54 00:04:39,503 --> 00:04:45,773 S1: you have, um, a video of Trump saying, you know, 55 00:04:45,803 --> 00:04:48,443 S1: it looks like we're going to have to attack Russia, 56 00:04:48,653 --> 00:04:54,053 S1: pre-emptive nuclear strike. And it's very believable. And it freaks 57 00:04:54,053 --> 00:04:57,563 S1: somebody out and that person freaks out Putin, and something 58 00:04:57,563 --> 00:05:00,353 S1: goes off or something similar to that. Maybe it's not 59 00:05:00,353 --> 00:05:04,463 S1: a nuclear war, but something where there's an actual threat 60 00:05:04,463 --> 00:05:08,213 S1: being made and it causes the other person to respond. 61 00:05:08,213 --> 00:05:14,453 S1: So it's a trigger point for kinetic action that that's 62 00:05:15,533 --> 00:05:20,303 S1: pretty serious. And we have the tech now to be 63 00:05:20,303 --> 00:05:22,733 S1: able to do that. Um, not everyone could do it, 64 00:05:22,733 --> 00:05:26,063 S1: but it's getting pretty close. And it's much easier to 65 00:05:26,063 --> 00:05:28,463 S1: do with images than it is for video. But the 66 00:05:28,463 --> 00:05:31,613 S1: point is, this is getting very, very real. No longer.
