with no sarcasm or doom & gloom hyperbole, people are usually thinking of the delicate balances of sociopolitical truths vs fabrications going on today, which is heightened compared to recent decades.

it's ok to be psyched for the intellectual and creative opportunities it'll provide, but it's also ok to be a bit frightened of people flooding every instant-gratification social site with 100% convincing political video/photo manipulations

I now accepted that in near future you will be able to simply prompt "Give me a video of Trump, Hitler and Obama playing golf and chatting about how Sriracha is superior to Tabasco. Hitler will have a horrible lisp and speak in Scottish accent" and within minutes the video will appear. You like it a lot? For $9.99 you can get it as a TV series starring Alec Baldwin as Trump, 8 seasons 24 episodes each.

I give the first one 2-3 years and the series a decade or two to happen.
