I fear that these pictures will become more realistic and then be unleashed by bad actors at the right moment, preventing people from making informed decisions. Censorship should not be used and will not work. So, there is no "solution" at this point. Perhaps AI and search tools will become freely available to tell us what is unreal in real time.

Conversely, when someone really does have the goods, it'll be denounced as fake, as the White House did with videos showing a befuddled Biden before the debate disaster.
I think it would depend on who releases the realistic photos at the right time. I think people are starting to find the media outlets, accounts, and people they can trust (big, small, independent), like I have with TFP. At this point, anything MSM produces needs to be taken with a grain of salt after the lies they have been willing to publish.
Yes, but long as we permit bad actors, such as those state-sponsored by countries like Iran, North Korea, or Russia, to exploit these tools against us, the process of identifying and labeling false information and fake content will invariably lag behind the creation of these fakes. This is evident to anyone observing current social media trends, particularly on platforms like Twitter following Elon Musk's controversial takeover. Government needs to set incentives that clearly will discourage the production and distribution of fakes and actively demand platform and AI providers to put checks-and-balances in place.
There is no god-given or scientific rule explaining why the government should not be able to do a good job of governing or regulating. If it doesn't work, it's our job to elect the officials who are good at it (if you are living in a democracy, that is).

The “solution” is to know what is true and then to tune out the “narrative” and the fake AI pix and movie animations.

Government does not do a good job of governing or regulating...face it, it's up to us now.
