The glass half-full in me feels that the advantage to this is that in a few years the average person will know better than to trust anything that could be faked like that, instead of the old situation where someone who was willing to put in that effort could actually trick a lot of people.
I think that’s true, but it’s kind of like the trade offs during the pandemic where we knew it would eventually settle into a stable state but still wanted to reduce the harm getting there. We basically need some large fraction of the global population to level up in media literacy at all once.
