So, extrapolating out a bit, when I'm recording driving video from my GoPro and I run that red light, the software can just recognize that the light should have been green and fix it for me. Or when a photo of me is recognized that I've gained 20 lbs in the past Covid year it can be "corrected" to reflect how I "ought" to look. This can go wrong in so many ways. With the advent of deepfakes, and some of them are absolutely undetectable by me, it's been clear for some time that we're going to reach a point where we won't be able to tell reality from deception in the world of photography and video. This goes so far beyond "Photoshopping". As with all things anymore, technology which was created with innocent intent will be used by the ever-growing amoral body with nefarious intent. Very interesting enlightenment, Sidd.

I fear that we are already at the point where government (state) actors are very easily able to manipulate images. :(

Some states have been doing it for years but less easily then than now.

There seems to be a real conscious blurring of reality and what someone "desires to be reality". It will get to a point that when everyone is special no one is special.

I wonder if there is a way to turn all the AI off when taking photos?

Yeah, right. That would be giving up control over us unwashed heathen technology users. Microsoft proved a long time ago that big tech companies don't trust us with options. We'll do it their way or else. ;)

Sadly Dave your comment has the undeniable ring of truth.
