This is interesting because it highlights the trust we've always placed in real-looking images. It brings real-looking images down to the same level as text.

It's always been possible to write fake news. We've never had to add disclaimers at the top of textual content, e.g. "This text is made to sound like it describes real events, but contains invented and/or inaccurate facts." We feel the need to add this to video because until now, if it looked real, it probably was (of course, "creative" editing has existed for a long time, but that's still comparatively easy to spot).

It's the end of a media era, really.
