Thought about this from seeing this Deepfake of the Queen dancing. For all the scaremongering, deepfakes haven’t been properly used.

We haven’t seen any deepnudes released of politicians, that one AOC thing a while back aside. We haven’t seen any deepfakes of Trump calling for a race war. We haven’t seen deepfakes of Bill Gates confessing to infecting everyone with 5G, or Biden confessing to being a corporate stooge.

What gives?

    Our epistemology isn't quite cracked to the point where you can rewrite history with fabricated videos. Photoshop didn't shatter our grasp on reality and neither will deepfakes.
