It's going to be used prolifically for something much more boring. Embellished product listings and fake reviews. If online shopping is frustrating now. It's probably going to get a lot worse trying to weed out good quality things to buy as photographs are no longer reliable.
This reaffirms my wish to go back to monkey.
we've been able to do this kinda shit since the days of film, it wasn't hard, just required some clever stitching and blending.
It's "more accessible" I'm more concerned about shit like AI generated videos though. Those are spooky. Or also just the general accessibility of "natural bot nets" now.
This is one of the required steps on the way to holodecks. I've been ready for it for 30 years.

REWRITING HISTORY BY DOCTORING PHOTOS WITH NEVER SEEN BEFORE PHOTO MANIPULATIONS
Sorry everyone I keep forgetting which zeitgeist that media is currently using to make us hate and fear something.
There are even actual statues of completely made up stuff.
I wish tools to detect if an image is real or not become as easy to use and good as these AI tools bullshit.
It's fundamentally not possible.
At some point fakes will be pixel perfect indistinguishable.
Any tool someone invents will be used to train an AI to circumvent that tool.
In fact that's how a lot of AI training is done in the first place.
This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
