I'm an illustrator. I'm fully capable of drawing/painting political figures in compromising or worse situations. Should the government blind me because my skills are dangerous?
Artists, intellectuals, journalists, and critics of all sorts have been jailed, beaten, or simply murdered in the past for expressing themselves in ways the government of the time did not like.
I think your situation is different, in that a) people who spend many years learning to be good illustrators tend to have standards for what they create in ways that, say, virulent racists using ML tools don't; and b) people rarely take illustrations as evidence of things that happened in real life, whereas they will do that with ML-generated fake photographs.
In the general sense yes, but I wonder if there will be unexpected things that we’ll need to take into account with this new generation of tools.
Part of me thinks that this is another revolution in graphics the same way Photoshop was where you can work 10x faster. But another one ponders about what happens when we’re dealing with intelligence.
