I think people are seeing the risks of people creating fake videos but there's another risk that I think is being overlooked. As convincing fake videos become a reality and articles like this inform the general public of that reality it becomes incredibly easy to dismiss any inconvenient videos as deep fakes. If Mitt Romney had made his 47% comment in the present climate he likely would have been able to skate by saying that was a deep fake, created by political adversaries.
