It's not quite QAnon but this new craze is helping to kill the time until 3rd March when Biden gets arrested

I read that as ‘dad to be killed...’ then realised its ‘dad-to-be killed...’

Am so glad Biden has found time to murder people in other countries, must be why he's too busy to do stupid commie shit like looking after people in his own country!

Not politics but from the States and has some rather scary implications for that whole murky world:

I've been saying this for some time now. There needs to be some serious laws concerning deep fakes. Something along the lines of they must always be declared, or even watermarked as such, and anyone not doing so is liable for fraud.

Let's not wait until an election is swung at the last minute due to a deep fake going viral around unwitting social media users, or even worse, someone becomes the victim of misguided vigilante justice due to same.

I'm building a deep fake detector for a uni project. I had to write a bit about ethics and motivation for it at the start of the year. At the moment the vast majority of deep fakes are porn, pretty much all of it is unconsensual. Either movie stars have been turned into porn stars against their will or even just normal people. There are stories of women discovering fake porn of them has been shared around their offices.

So far there hasn't been much evidence of it being used maliciously in politics. The one definite case of a definite deep fake I did find related to politics was still a woman being a victim of fake porn. There was an Indian journalist that wrote an article criticising the government and shortly afterwards a fake porn video of her went viral, which she thinks was an attempt to silence her.

Not to say it couldn't be used in politics. Also a concern is if it becomes more common place you could also see politicians dismiss real videos of them as fake. I think Donald Trump initially admitted that video of him talking about grabbing woman by the pussy was real, then later on tried to claim it was a fake.

Sadly, I think it will always be a cat and mouse game where better detectors just lead to better deep fake creators. One of the methods of creating them is a generative adversarial network, which is basically pitting 2 neural networks against each other. One tries to create fake videos and the other tries to tell if a video is real or has been created by the other neural net. So basically if someone creates a brilliant deep fake detector it can be used by the baddies to train a better deep fake creator

Turns out some (sex worth unerage, trafficking)of the qanon stuff was true but for trump sidekickshttps://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2021/apr/03/matt-gaetz-republican-sex-trafficking-scandal?CMP=Share_AndroidApp_Other

Here's betting the nutters won't make a fuss abou it.

It’s all projection. Qanon’s whole ‘the Dems are child molesters’ schtick is just a big scheme to take the attention away from the fact that Don and his cronies are all mass offenders themselves.

This Matt Gaetz guy is a raging bellend. Paying for underage prostitutes using cash apps - what a fucking idiot.

It's documented that Donny's model agency was importing underage girls who were trafficked for sex. Plenty to Epstein.
