Video and image gen models are getting so insane. Will be reading a piece soon on what happens when all forms of digital "provenance" begin falling into an ocean of "well i literally have zero way to know if this is real or not" and what that may do to the public psyche, the culture, and future generations.

It'll be on nostr:nprofile1qyf8wumn8ghj7ctnw3exzmpwde5ku6npqyt8wumn8ghj7cnfw33k76twv4ezuum0vd5kzmqqyza65fhwv3q3sss9qfdy6vl5qr0xvede4x903cdkkkpw2t8zc8z8cza963f if you are interested

Basically if we don’t have a PGP-style repository of known public keys verified by the potential authors which are paired with cryptographically signed broadcasts, then I don’t believe it.

I wonder where that might exist 🤔

It’s here in the room with us.

I’ve been also wondering if there would be a way to integrate public key pairs with cameras in some way that proves the legitimacy of a photo/video. I’m not familiar enough with that space to know though 🤷

How about a FOB/device that pairs with your devices over NFC so if you take a picture of something it’s signed at the point of capture. A wearable Key bunker thats cross compatible with different devices would be sick.

Absolutely, love that idea. My only concern with that is, what’s to stop someone from generating an AI image and then signing that?

I suppose we’d have to rely on reputation at that point, which may honestly be the best bet, but the computer nerd in me wants a deterministic control 😅

Sure affirmative fraud is one thing, but they are then on the hook for the representation. More importantly you can disregard anything that is purportedly representing the non-signing agent in the piece of media and they can refute representations made in the media. If its a true piece of media generating by another they could request the agents contained in the media to sign off on the media to confirm its authenticity of course giving people the option to preserve their Fifth Amendment rights.

You guys are absolutely on the right track. Cryptography solves this, but we have to sew cryptography into the world very deeply and wrap it around everything. I've been thinking about how the rise of AI is actually our friend because the pervasive insecurity of it is a forcing function for cryptography adoption.

Cryptography is the art of securing information.

The QC hoax needs to be dispelled and ECC needs to be pervasive and ubiquitous. The rise of spintronics, which looks very realistic, and to a lesser extent, photonics, should help make that realistic from a hardware perspective

I’ll have to look into the last sentence items. But I’m bullish on weaving cryptography into meatspace.

Yeah, nobody is paying attention to the realistic non-startrek tech that is quietly coming down the pipe because we are too busy tying ourselves in knots over the CRQC psyop and injecting ourselves with the PQ vax. The real changes to computer hardware that are coming a super bullish for ECC and pervasive encryption

I already don't believe anything on the Internet... including all you plebs!

It's written in the sovereign individual since 1997 :)

This was done with FOSS models, gonna get wild

Truly crazy. I was watching a nature documentary recently and it occurred to me it could easily have been made with Ai. I don’t think it was, but yea, soon they will be and it’ll be impossible to tell. Scary thing ofc is the misinformation that can/will be spread in far greater quantity and rapidity than now.

this is strong motivation to put phone down and touch grass.

Easy to solve with web of trust, vector signals made permanent on Bitcoin. This is what I'm building at BitcoinUBI.com, UBI to support collaboration about a zk 1:1 human account

Amazing.

For each time you turn off your brain to ask GPT and every time you prompt for a piece of music instead of stretching your abilities at the piano. You loose your ability as a human, as you have outsourced it.

Our brain consumes huge amounts of energy, we are wired to save energy. The second we start slacking on our training to improve and optimize our mental capacity it WILL become a "bad" habit.

There are already many cases of cognitive decline and "AI psychosis" and it's only been a couple years.

Imagine how much damage this is going to do to peoples brains long term.

It is worrying. If independent, critical thinking were already limited one can only fear what to come.

What I fear is for the legal system. How will we know if an evidence is forged or legitimate. Especially for incriminating videos 🤔

Everyone’s but Amy’s and Elvis’

But seriously. I knew it wasn’t real because snoop has dreads not braids, and all of the other people save for eminem are dead. His hair is black and he’s way older than depicted in the video. Like it’s cool don’t get me wrong but at least I could tell that it was fake
