The interaction of our current legal system with SotA deepfakes seems terrifying.

To rip from current headlines: https://www.justice.gov/usao-wdpa/pr/erie-man-charged-arson-...

(Leaving aside the merits of the case / opinions, and just using it as an example)

".. the [Facebook Live & coffee shop] videos depict a male – with distinctive hair to the middle of his back wearing a white mask, white shirt, light blue jean jacket, black pants with a red and white striped pattern down the side and red shoes - setting a fire inside of Ember + Forge."

"A review of additional Facebook public video footage from the area of State Street near City Hall in Erie on the evening of May 30, 2020, shows the same individual without the mask but wearing identical clothing and shoes. The subject’s face is fully visible in this video footage."

And that's a federal arson charge (min 5 years, max 20 years prison).
