      Fake News does nothing but further dilute the trust in real news - the poison that numbs you to the knife in your back.

    Nowadays, all digital media is becoming AI:

    • ALL digital photos/videos/audio get processed via software (RAW development, editing software)
    • ALL photo/video editing software uses AI (automatic curves and audio correction, AI-assisted compression)
    • Ergo: ALL photos/videos are AI
    • Corollary: old photos that were not AI, are also becoming AI as they get “remastered” and resaved.

    Doesn’t mean “generative AI”, but spotting the difference is only going to become harder and harder.

      Yes I work in the field and I’d say that overall this is somewhat accurate, denoising in particular has a direct impact on your pixels so at the core it’s “manipulated”, of course that doesn’t mean the content isn’t accurate but it’s definitely “processed”.

      Then there’s all the heavier use of AI like remove tools, and partially using gen AI.

      I think you’re conflating “AI” with media processing. In most photo/video editing software that support it, you can use AI as a tool, but all it’s really doing is cutting down on the time it would take to do some tasks manually. That doesn’t mean it’s “AI” any more than it’s “AI” to crop a photo. Even film negatives need to be processed before anyone can see the photo.

      I’m not saying AI good or bad, but I think it’s disingenuous to say that using AI to say, colour-correct an image or denoise a video, makes that image/video “AI”

        I’m saying AI is being shoved into all steps of media processing.

        Let me illustrate: this is an AI-focused, AI-corrected, AI-remastered, AI-lifted sticker of a photo of my cat… AI-cropped from a screenshot… that got AI-moderated the moment I uploaded it here.

    I don’t think Israel wants us to see Palestinians peacefully getting food either 😂
