Does AI officially spell the end of humanity?
I'm serious, it's not a joke.
I think Sora 2 is already good enough to fool many people if you didn't have the watermark and you cherry picked an especially good gen. Maybe not all gens are good, but if you waited for the perfect gen and there was no watermark I think malicious actors could use a Sora 2 video to fool most people these days really.

Consider the Moon Landing from 1969. I agree that was real footage and nobody had the technology to convincingly fake the moon landing back in 69.

But now in 2025 we have the technology to fake whatever we want and these billion-dollar companies are flaunting it right in our faces. We don't even know if the public AI we have access to is as good as the private AI that only the government/companies have access to in secret.

I think it's dishonest for OpenAI to lobotomize Sora 2, which they do sometimes. I feel like in order to cut costs and save on processing they are sometimes lobotomizing Sora 2 so it makes bad gens, and other times, especially toward the start, they were letting it run wild without any restrictions and the outputs were astoundingly amazing.

What are we gonna do when we can no longer trust anything online anymore? Not even the people we interact with? ChatGPT can already solve captchas, meaning that if somebody wanted to, they could set up ChatGPT to spam posts on all boards and it could get past our captchas already as they are now lol.
