They do us the favor of making it pretty clear that this never happened; others will not be so generous. On the surface, it’s just a joke video, but the implications are grave. If Sassy Justice can make this video, what’s stopping a much-better funded news organization from making a "Trump/Biden calls staffer the c-word, caught on tape" video? The <a href="http://smbc-comics.com/comic/villainy-2">SMBC comic about villainy</a> shows a master criminal who <iq>can generate a perfect deep-fake of any public figure doing anything</iq>, to which his interlocutor responds <iq>Why waste all that computing power? Just take an out-of-context still of the politician you don't like and writer whatever claim you want on it.</iq> <bq>Using neural networks to fool the human mind is like using a bazooka to fight a hamster.</bq>
