I get the tech implementation is amazing, I wonder if it takes away from genuineness of events, like the Astronaut photo, I get it's just a joke/funny too but it's like a photo of you in a supercar vs. actually buying one. Or fake AI companions vs. real people. Beauty filters/skinny filters vs. actually being healthy.

the next generation of humans growing up will not even care whether media is real or not any more. The saturation of AI content and FUD around real content is going to blur the lines to the extent that there's no point even caring about it. And it's an intractable problem.

hopefully this leads to greater importance of seeing things with your own wetware.

		The other issue is the need to show off... if I had a supercar why do I have to post it on Instagram that kind of thing.

thinking about this more it goes two ways for guys/girls, the guys can post pics of them doing crazy things on their Tinder up to the girl to decide if it's real or not

I'm not saying this as a critique against image generation as you can manually make these fake images but yeah

Ultimately I think it's good, makes people be real
