I always bring this back to photoshopping. It's been around forever.

That teacher in the article - what if she was photoshopped instead of "deep faked" would anything have been different?

Photoshopping has been around forever.

Just a bit weird to me that people are predicting the AI end of the world with this stuff when its really just a slightly faster way to do something we've had for ages.

Photoshop doesn't create photorealistic live video of you. Even voices can be matched.

"Slightly" faster is vastly underselling it, deepfakes can be rendered in real time now. The same tech powers TikTok filters.
