I don't understand the argument that crypto solves the problem of verifying real vs AI-generated content. how exactly does crypto help here? genuinely curious

I get how the cryptography works but I don't get how this practically solves the core problems. anyone could just take any arbitrary image (like the AI Pope), sign it and say they created it. in the end it still feels like we'll rely on abstract social consensus to determine whether something's real

I agree. But if the image is signed by Associated Press, or a trusted newspaper? And they have the earliest timestamp?

It would be different if it came from the Pope's account. That's the use case.

The signature must come from the camera itself. Not from the author of the picture. You will know it’s real because it’s signed with canon/Nikon/whatever private key. And that key must be trusted

You would do it through verifiable credentials and a whole stream of gating mechanisms. Lots of work done here already on Proof of Humanity. Will probably be a big problem in the future, but we come prepared.

One way it could work is if the camera had an enclave hardware wallet (eg, like a Kong Cash chip) and was continuously hashing & writing to a blockchain at the time of recording/capture (similar to Filecoin's proof-of-spacetime). Would prob work better for videos than pictures (esp if the video length > block duration)

There are already projects like what Sony is developing where the camera has a built-in forgery-proof signing system + I believe Adobe is working on a similar system where the edits are signed from the editor's account. Tech like these, you can verify the chain of production of content. Link is below:
