ā€œI am the ultimate diversity hire, I’m both a woman and a person of color, so if you criticize anything I say, you’re both a sexist and a racistā€

AI will destroy jobs… (hopefully one in particular).

But both sides can use this tool — to construct a narrative, as well as to destroy it.

Reality may become very hard to find with unmarked Deepfake voices ā€œon the looseā€ — especially if there is no shared public forum to hammer out the truth. That seems like a brilliant but very dangerous game. The thing about great satire, as opposed to deepfake lies, is that when it’s done well, and it is the truth (even said in a fake voice), the target wouldn’t want to draw attention to it by denying they said it.

But perhaps we need an AI watermark…
