The boundaries between reality and fiction, and between human and artificial, are becoming increasingly blurred and indistinguishable.

AI-generated media, and bots contribute to 'deep doubt'.

In a digital world where bots and generative AI continues to grow, it becomes flooded with digital objects that you don't know if they are real or fiction. 

You start to get lost in an ocean of information. I think that outlook and orientation in your digital world gets all fuzzy, because you lose you can't reference yourself against anything. I think this is why people say you need to go touch grass, sometimes its because we need to orient ourselves again properly, and figure out where we are in space.

Unfortunately, I think this is just going to get worse

Deepfakes will be (are already?) a huge problem, but we should also be concerned about real photos/videos that people will say are deepfakes to get out of trouble. Elon already tried this!
