Same, AI generated media is getting to the point where it's very difficult to tell if something is real or not. It's going to be an interesting adjustment period where we can no longer take video or photographic evidence for granted anymore. I can see cameras using something like RSA going forward, where the camera will sign the image with a cryptographic signature using its private key, and then anybody could verify that the image came from the camera using the public key published by the manufacturer for example. I actually recall reading a paper a little while back which explained how this could work, and you could embed signature data in a way which would survive retouching software too.
