It’s been a week, there is going to be an explosion of believable fake items that are going to be used to lure people in to even more unbelievable conspiracy theories than there currently exist. Your average conspiracy nut didn’t have the skills or know how before, but they sure do now.

Also you’re probably not seeing all the pedo content that people are already generating for themselves.

> be an explosion of believable fake items

I think that's a good thing. A slow creep is dangerous, because people may not notice, and would be tricked. An explosion of insanity makes everyone realize they can't believe everything they see on the internet.

It will be all of the above so it doesn’t really matter since it’s all going to be indistinguishable from the real thing.

Which has been the case for the last few decades. Nobody should be trusting anything they see on the internet.

It might end up having the opposite effect. When all sides of an argument can bomb each other with AI generated content it could poison the well and make people less likely to believe things they see.

Instead they'll pick and choose whatever to believe the conforms to their world view or comfort, and dismiss the rest as 'fake news'.

We'll get more Q-Anon than Wikipedia.
