>The problem with these AI generated 'realistic photojournalist' images is that they erode the belief in these images as being factual representations of real world events.

That isn't the problem. The problem is people will believe inherently that they are factual representations, because there will be no non-AI mediated sources of truth available, Or worse, people simply won't care, since the concept of "objective reality" simply doesn't exist in a post-truth culture.
