I wrote a satire story a few months back where a deep fakes press conference with a deep fakes Biden saying all kinds of highly personal insults about Putin and making imminent missile launch threats. This is broadcast to Russia and sets off WWIII. From reading your article, this is an exaggeration and would probably not work, but still looks to be scarily technologically within our present capabilities. An epistemic crisis- a Cat. 5 hurricane of misuse is bearing down on us.

I'd prefer fake Biden and fake Putin trash talk each other in CS:GO

Valve would never do that...I think. Anyway, how do I know if your reply is from a human and not from some Gen Four ChatGPT?

And how do you know mine is not the first entirely AI written newsletter?

And how do the readers of this conversation know if they are not reading two Gen Fours talking to each other?

An epistemic storm for sure.
