It used to be that you could trust nothing that you heard and 10 % of what you saw–what now?

Artificially generated content will bring a lot of interesting developments to the world. Thats what was said. Now its being done.
Tell Chat GPT and it will produce whatever you wish. Not always 100% perfect, but if a company like Emirates feels compelled to denounce something - its getting close enough to hurt the bottom line.
Some of the fake videos and photos are good enough that you actually have to analyze them closely to tell if they are real. Even if the situation depicted may give it away as fake, there can be enough doubt that you can’t outright dismiss it.
The problem with these “deep fakes” is that they are training us to either 1) believe everything we see is real (this is bad) or 2) disbelieve everything we see with our own eyes (this is also bad).
The world was not ready for social media.
What happened to all of the drones over New Jersey? Did the shark attacks get them or did the media simply grow tired of whipping up the rubes?
It’s amusing that they feel this way about a simulation. Thank God FedEx isn’t coming after me for crashing an MD-11 freighter in their colors on X-Plane 12 twice yesterday and doing a heavy landing at BOS, before I got the autoflight system sorted out in my head, today. But then I don’t pretend any of the simulations are real, and don’t post them online. This looks like an old simulation, or maybe MS 2020? The fire isn’t correctly located relative to the engine, it burns ahead. The damage model is also poor. I don’t think this is AI generated. It’s much easier to just crash a simulator.
Unfortunately, the percentage of viewers that agree with you is small. Most want to believe what is seen and then spread it around…unsubstantiated.
I’m sorry, but AI? The above clip may not have been the AI generated clip they were referencing, but I know for sure that it IS a recording of the 2013 game “Grand Theft Auto 5”. The skyline is not Abu Dubai, it’s the fictional recreation of L.A. dubbed “Los Santos”. I know the internet it a muddy place, but how much worse does it have to get before we see either reform, or some sort of media literacy course for the folks who, unfortunately and understandably, believe things like this.
The fact that the clip above was taken from a game that is now 15 years old, and can still pass for reality, speaks to the vulnerability of the public to misinformation.
