Let’s not do anything about the unregulated technology that can spread lies faster than ever before as websites get absolutely flooded with believable bots that outnumber the actual users. Let’s make secret passwords and handshakes like we’re in a clubhouse.
Regardless, it’s not a bad idea since it’s probably not gonna get better for awhile if at all.
The technology is out. While something should be done on that side of things, it also doesn’t remove the technology from existence - you will still need other protections.
Regulations virtually always lag years behind technology, don’t they? In the interim period with absolutely no regulations, we must take it upon ourselves to protect ourselves and loved ones from being exploited.
Given just how wealthy the AI bubble is making some people, we may not see any common sense regulation for quite some time. Best to adapt to that reality imo. Gonna tell my friends and family to call me by my hacker alias, “X360N0_sc0peX” on the phone or I’ll assume they’re a bot.
What can be done, you can download an LLM and run it locally, they’re not going away
Websites have been full of shit, bots or not, since forever. Nothing new here.
Regulating it does nothing. Only rich people gets to have deepfakes? Nah, let it be public, so everyone can have some vigilance.
vigilance
Vigilance is like, not drinking the water that comes out of a nuclear reactor.
What we’re talking about here is letting everyone run their own reactor and dump the waste into the street.
You don’t gain vigilance, you lose all habitable public space.
It’s a bit late for that. This particular nuclear reactor is open source, free to download and runs on consumer hardware. Can’t really unfry that egg and the quality is getting better all the time. Identity fraud is already illegal in most places so not sure exactly what regulation would be appropriate here.

It’s the Terminator “your mother is dead” scene.
I am just imagining the scene in question, but the dialogue is Arnold asking Conner’s mom about the scene in question.
“What does Arnold ask you in Terminator 2?”
“I think he asked me about the weather.”
“Your foster parents are dead.”
“Mom, I’m getting fed up with this orgasm!”
HA HA HA fellow humankind member.This has given me a pointer to a disk location of a friend back in universityLol but seriously, back in uni a friend of mine got their social media hacked. The hacker was trying to beg for money and such. One person got suspicus and asked what their favorite beer was, so the scammer texted me “hey what is my favorite beer?”
Fortunately the account got locked for some reason, so no money was stolen. Bro still has not recovered it.

I thought ours was “Tahiti”, though.

Now I have a reason to spend the night looking at my Klingon dictionary.
Just ask them about something you’ve experienced together, assuming there has been contact.
Remember that time we went out and talked about your father while having tea?
Starting to realize I wouldn’t remember most things
Its honestly not hard
“Son its dad, Ive had to borrow a phone…”
“Before I transfer the money dad, whens Gran getting out of the hospital?”
(Grans been dead for a decade)
(puts the phone down)
‘Your foster parents are dead.’
Saying the same thing over and over again in different conversations would be super useful if your goal is to train an AI to listen to calls

I mean close family members will recognise if it’s you so they’ll have to contact someone else which mostly likely will find through Facebook or other platforms. Still this still seems like a way to make people even more unique between them.
