Hot on the heels of a spike in public awareness of ChatGPT, artificial intelligence software that's capable of all sorts of things previously doable only by humans, comes "deepfake" video generation.
Here's the primary law that would currently apply to deepfake technology in most states, which normally has a standard of causing emotional distress to the person falsely portrayed (thus different from defamation actions such as libel or slander): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/False_light
I didn't think tech would get this far before I died. I remember when I was a young teen having to comb through the Sears catalog or other such magazines to get my thrills. Maybe I was born too soon. Or too late, not sure which.
History shows us how hard it is to predict the future. It's littered with utterly wrong prognostications made by very smart people. Just roll with it, I say.
