It's no longer possible for %99 of people (I can't tell) to decide if online video is AI or real. This level is broken now. how is it going to affect literally everything?

It's not going to be good, but it's really just an accelerant for a denial of reality that's been building for a long time. I mean, there are corners of the Internet where people still vigorously deny that video of planes hitting the World Trade Center towers is real. (Or, more recently, that Charlie Kirk was actually shot.) I wonder if we'll soon see a "War of the Worlds" kind of panic touched off by very convincing AI-faked news reports and first-hand videos of [something], with a significant number of people so deep inside their insulated social media bubbles that they don't even see all the other people saying "hey, this is a bunch of crap that's not actually happening."

First, it was faking evidence by taking people speaking out of context and spreading fake news. Now it is AI-generated videos faking real footage? 1984 came true with MiniTrue.

Random video was never proof in court proceedings; it all depends on the provenance and chain of custody. Society will need to figure something similar out for everyday living as well.
