Do we see much change with photoshop? Personally I don't recall seeing much, but a "photo" of someone in the wrong place at the wrong time is every bit as damning as a deep-fake video in many circumstances.

Hate to say it, but deepfake audio and video are already pretty convincing (though post processing is needed)

Good looking post processing used to be exclusively reserved for movie studios with render farms. Then it became available to any YouTuber with a PC and a license (or not) of Adobe. Now the average phone can do more impressive special effects for Snapchat filters than big budget movies had not long ago.
I'm convinced that deepfakes will be as easily generated as a Snapchat filter within a few years, substantially less time than society will require to adjust to this reality.

There was a viral video last week of the "Ghost of Kiev" that looked like real war footage. It ended up being from a 2013 video game!

Post processing or just lowering the resolution?
Filming a deepfake with a DV cam pointed at your screen is very convincing. Sadly.

I hear that cameras that sign video files are coming. It sucks that we have reached this point but it seems like some mitigations against deep fakes will appear.

The novel Fuzzy Nation has cameras like that. Regular cameras are basically inadmissible in court.

The minute fakes are a serious issue we will sign utterances. Exactly the same as DNS or anything actually important. Deepfakes will not be a threat or issue.

Except DNSSEC accomplishes nothing really. It does not make anything more secure. Crypto is not a panacea to the problems of trust.
On the other hand, the world is probably the most united it's been in a while because of Russia so there's that.
