Fake AI-generated video of Justin Timberlake drinking beer shocks fans: ‘Where do we go from here?’
This is more than just troubling, for a number of reasons. First of all, the lack of reluctance in today's media viewership is a phenomenon in it of itself. People should always take everything with a grain of salt, especially given developments in A.I., but most are quick to accept what they see. Second of all, this video is clearly fake for a number of reasons. 1: how would it even be possible for Timberlake to have beer in a jail holding cell? 2: Although edited very well, making it seem believable, it still should be clear to the viewer with average competency that this is fake. His facial expressions and movements are quite awkward. The discourse surrounding this video and the lack of questioning currently unfolding in the media landscape is scary.
