"Don't believe everything you see on the internet" is a standard advice. According to a new report from European law enforcement group Europol, we have all the reason to increase our vigilance.
According to the report, experts estimate that 90 percent of online content may be synthetically generated by 2026.
Synthetic media is usually created for gaming, to improve services or to improve the quality of life, but the increase in synthetic media and improved technology has given rise to misinformation.
It's probably not a good idea to use 90 percent as a number. People have become accustomed to the presence of bots, and artificial intelligence-generated text-to-image programs have been making waves. Our default isn't to assume that everything we come into contact with is legit.
The Europol report states that people trust their own perception to guide them and tell them what is real and what is not. Auditory and visual recordings of an event can be used as a true account of an event. What if the media can be created to show events that never happened, or to distort the truth, for example?
Deepfake technology was the focus of the report. What do Dall-E and GPT-3 mean for artists, writers, and other content creators? What will the dissemination of information look like in an era driven by that degree of artificial intelligence?
We are all trying to understand our rapidly evolving digital world as it happens. We would do well to remember that there are a lot of changes in the works. Don't go ahead with fear. It is probably a good idea to proceed cautiously.
There are more revelations about how Gpt 3 is put into a robot.
