The amount of AI-generated deepfakes that we have seen so far is honestly far lower than what I or most people would have predicted we would see at current capability levels. https://twitter.com/GarrisonLovely/status/1729977755826315473

I think major public figures would respond too quickly to credibly debunk and mid-tier ones aren’t worth the effort. I recall when Pelosi fake circulated it was more “look what’s possible” than people getting taken in. You need a weirdly isolated, non-leaky target to influence with high reach/low detectability

Do deepfakes actually have that much power? How many people are deceived by it?

You probably don’t use TikTok, but imo its very common. People usually use one artist to sing another famous artists’ song, and it gets like hundreds of thousands of likes before it gets taken down. I haven’t seen many use cases for ill intent, but I sense it’s coming

we probably underestimate the distance between an “almost convincing” deepfake and a “very hard to tell apart & convincing” one, and it takes some more time to produce the latter

I forget where I heard this (some podcast) but apparently there are voice cloning agencies, basically have voice actors all over the world who can imitate a catalogue of public figures on demand. Not sure how much work they get but they'll probably be impacted more than most.

1. Not sure we have a reliable way to measure without understanding private social networks (eg WhatsApp forwards) where network trust is higher so misinformation spreads easily 2. In public spheres - Even “real” videos are being questioned, esp in a polarized world. In short - Consumers are getting smarter.

There might be some bias here because the high-quality deep fake is so good it goes unnoticed, and also people are ashamed to report they got scammed, so there will always be an underestimation of this trend

This could be because the bottleneck for disinformation is distribution not generation. https://www.aisnakeoil.com/p/is-ai-generated-disinformation-a

Personally I think it's a combination of people are lazy and also don't know it's that cheap and easy. I just don't know the ratio. Once they figure it out, it's going to be interesting.

maybe it's just that we haven't encountered an event in our daily life that requires that much of economic incentive to do a complete high-quality deepfake video
