New Technologies such as Artificial Intelligence is making the World a better place, but here in this particular usage ; this means the public has to be trained to question everything
The media, the interview, the pictures all that can be monitored, can be altered, can be used for propaganda.
There is a particular sense that will need to be developed in the future of mankind and that is 'intuition'.
Currently all these 'deep fake' video are imperfect, something is not right, the light is a little different, the angles are weird, some details are either too many or too few. But the next version will probably make these almost believable.
The one thing that cannot be fooled, is the careful questioning of the content, is there an agenda?
Does the content feels right? What is the context? Would anybody benefits of this message?
And then the careful attention to the details, the skin tone, the haircut, the lighting, the texture, is there a glitch, does the person talking intermittently looks like a video-game character?
From 2017 to 2021 the World has been under the constant shower of 'fake news' ; there were so many lies, so many deceptions that it was like a speed training. The tools are there, the technologies are accessible, our duty as citizen is to be informed, to be careful, to be slow to react, and to have a solid knowledge of history, and philosophy.
Is this True?
Are we absolutely sure that this is true?
Of course not, let's study this with a scientific approach
"Science is more than a body of knowledge. It's a way of thinking, a way of skeptically interrogating the universe with a fine understanding of human fallibility"
Do not be fooled by your own expectation, most of the time we get tricked because we want to believe something in the first place, and we try to find confirmation instead of using a skeptical approach.
Let's be smart.
