Maybe an unpopular opinion, but I feel like anything produced by AI should be somehow watermarked at the source. At this point there's only a handful of companies. It wouldn't be too hard to have them all insert something into the final product that is easily identifiable. Something like a microscopic signature in a corner, with model info and date produced...idk. Not anything that ruins the image, but something that can be seen by anyone, if looked for.
If nothing else there should be a large push to inform the public of telltale features to look for (i.e. too many appendages) to help them determine if it's created by AI or not. While not fool proof, if it can discount even a portion of the misinformation, imo, it's worth an effort.
To me, it seems irresponsible of the companies running the AI to just unleash it upon the world without training us humans to understand what we're looking at. Letting us see how realistic everything is while letting us know its been produced by AI, at least helps us to comprehend the scope of the matter and adapt to the situation at hand. Esp for those who don't fully grasp what AI can and cannot do.
It is just maths and most of it is public. if you can buy a 100K$ datacenter gpu you can have your own chat gpt, heck you can even do shit with regular consumer gpus. It is like trying to stop encryption
Well, shit. This explains a lot. But also, what chucklehead thought that was a good idea.
I know, now that you mention it, I vaguely remember something about how they didn't think it should be kept only by some corps or something. Which is commendable but at the same time, ugh.
I have no problem with everyone being able to use it ,but there should have been an introductory period, if nothing else. Jeeze.
Whelp, fake everything here we...are.
Feels like people probably said the same thing about the printing press when it came around. Imagine the sheer increase in volume of printed lies after its invention.
Social media corps just need to use AI to cross check what is in Video/Photos against various established news organizations. Pretty sure that will be the solution - moderating AI content with AI
