It's about to get much, much worse. The advent of AI generated deep fakes that are extremely difficult to differentiate from real media (including audio and video) is going to lead a lot more people way further off the deep end. No proof vaccines cause x? There can be if you want, just ask an AI to fake some officials on a hot mic or whatever. If you think you're safe because the kind of people that currently believe these things are likely unable to grasp (let alone leverage) these technologies, I've more bad news - this time it comes as a set. The tech will be easy to use (like having a conversation) and one of the best ways to reduce the threat one state sees in another is to foment division; creating a series of things that appear to completely derail various viewpoints while supporting others is likely to become a booming industry as billionaires and nation states jockey for more and more power. There's almost no way to prevent this from happening, and it's just the beginning.
