Scarlett Johansson calls for AI legislation after viral deepfake video

[JupitersMoon]

It's the people who support the Orange Degenerate are the ones suffering from derangement. Go back to Orange Twitter where you belong.


This is hilarious coming from someone who probably lives on a steady diet of Fox News and their brainwashing nonsense. All the clowns on Fox News like Hannity and Laura Inbread do this every single night. They present their opinions as facts. Trump supporters talking about facts and freedom of speech always make me laugh.

I am not even going to waste time explaining myself to a 12 year old

He actually simply claimed that Trump wouldn't do anything about it, not that he caused it... The thing is, the actual president won't matter for this kind of thing - Trump (or Biden, Clinton, Obama, Bush, etc) would be able to do very little to curtail this.

What Trump HAS done is provide an environment where certain people, who would normally do nothing, all of a sudden feel that it's OK to express hate and violence - both for causes supported and not supported by Trump's regime. He has polarized your nation - it will be interesting to see what happens in a decade or so...

Stop turning everything into politics FOR CHRIST SAKE.

Sure, whatever you say. Did Republicans get the fruits of their labor 4 years ago when Trump lost? Or did you absolutely refuse to accept the results of the previous election? Funny how that works. You're gloating now, but your side spent the last 4 years whining, and moaning, and refusing to accept the results of that election.

Did Democrats storm the capital after their losses to try and overturn the results of the election? Remind me again which side did that? Let me guess, when your side lost it wasn't a fair election. It's only fair when your side wins, right?

Flooding a country with illegal voters to have a country permanently vote for your party isn't really stand up behavior either bud.

You DO know that Biden’s regime was preceded by Trump’s, right?

The pendulum has been swinging BOTH ways… the impetus was actually Bush’s defeat of Gore way back…. Since then, the nation has been polarizing - at first gradually, but with Trump’s first regime, it seems to have hit the afterburners.

When both parties realize how damaging this has been for the nation, hopefully they will elect more moderate leaders to represent them and sanity might prevail…

Polarizing huh? Lol ahhh that's hilarious. Just going to make something up and run with it huh? Tell me again exactly what it's like living in America from outside of America some more. You watch the news so much you must know so much about America and her people and her people's behaviors.

Ahh a moderate leader, one who will lay down and return the ways of old. The ways of USAID funneling America's money to anything but aid. That's what foreigner folks want. They think they know what's best for USA from outside observance.

That would have been JupitersMoon… not me (ironically, he liked your post)…but, since this article is about legislation… politics isn’t exactly irrelevant here…hint: politicians are the ones who pass legislation

I didn’t make that up… do a simple Google search… or, better yet, take a look at the various stuff going on in your country…
Remember when you could argue about politics without people being mortally offended? It used to be possible… politicians from the Dem and Rep parties used to actually respect each other’s opinions - many were even friends outside of work… now there’s no such thing as “outside of work”…
By the way, I’ve been to your country many times - and have family who live there as well… and Toronto (where I live) is less than a 2 hour drive from Buffalo…

No… a moderate leader who doesn’t alienate half their population…

 

[p51d007]

Don't be bother by the facts, or are Trump's supporters now against the First Amendment they constantly argued it has been taken from them?

How the tables have turned.....

The DIFFERENCE is, a lot of tech sites will remove your post, or ban you if you go against the grain.

 

[Crank]

As a non-American reading this, I woefully shake my head at the lack of self-awareness in these couple of paragraphs. Just as drunkards insist they're not drunk no matter the level of intoxication, extremists (on both sides, not just the "Orange" side) insist they are not extreme.

Where did you get that chart? I will fix it.

Capitalism= right It is hard to have social safty nets but possible, lefties like money too)
countries have border controls= everybody
Freedom of speech= everybody
lower taxes= everybody
question the government(hold accountable)=everybody
country can defend itself(when actually in danger)=everybody
scientific/biological facts=everybody(gender is misunderstood scientifically by far right, way more grey than they think)

If you think you original "chart" is true you need to have a good look at what sources you use.
and I have to wonder what country you live in.

I worked in IT support for 27+ years and love tech stuff. I believe AI is a flawed and dangerous technology. I also believe that social media is destroying the fabric of the USA. Our adversaries are using our love of "freedom of speech" to undermine values and the unity of the USA. They now have a powerful tool (AI) to generate more disunity.

 

[Crank]

Exactly. Laws aren't a spell. The US can pass a deepfake law that will have zero impact on people in other countries making deepfakes.

US has very recently had other countries shut many pirate sites in Vietnam and other countries. The US has extradition agreements with over half the world. Specific laws get convictions easier.

 

[toooooot]

I have a strong feeling that in case with people like Scarlett, the main thing they want to achieve is that people just stop doing it. They think that someone can do something and these "work of art" will not be made. "I am important and I want this thing to not be."
Meanwhile, the reality is that we will live with this thing, now.
And the only realistic goal we should strive to is reacting to deepfakes that cause harm in a way to diminish their damage and possibly punish those who try to gain something from using those.

There is no bigger damage to a young person than spending time on social media rather than going outside, exercising and having real human contact.
We do not a quiet pandemic of mental illnesses for no reason.
It is like a safe fentanyl for kids. But the damage is very real.
And honestly, I feel like issues like free speech and AI do not pose as much threat as
what I mentioned above.

its republicans and dems. 2 party system sucks. every vote is about 50/50. trump is doing everything the voters voted for at the moment. you can disagree with it but its the truth.

 

[psycros]

With Trump in power there won't be any regulatory legislation at all.

Unfortunately many other people will suffer the consequences of Trump and his supporters that voted for him.

And you base this on...what, exactly?

 

[Squid Surprise]

Yes… but in the past, both parties didn’t differ very much - and both respected each other… last 25 years have changed this - now there’s so much hatred between democrat and republican…

like other posters have mentioned both sides compensate for each other. the dems keep pushing more and more progressive stuff. so then the republicans push back the other way. peronally I think both have good policies and bad. but overall the more conservative policies I agree with more. sad truth of lesser of 2 evils

 

[trieste1s]

Well, that’s a British group… so… I’m gonna go with… no…
Glad you brought such a relevant topic into this discussion…

Wonderful. I just wanted to see how powerful Trump is, according to anti-Orange. We need to examine any possible connections to the Netherlands too, you know, because Oranje. You never know.

Yeah, I don’t have a horse in the race… and I don’t blame either side for the polarization - I think that came from 9/11 and the Bush/Gore election being so closely contested.

Neither side has done much to fix it though - Trump has taken it a step further and has used it to gain power… but Democrats, instead of actually running a coherent program, simply went all-in on woke/SJW and got smoked…

100% agree on the reason trump won was dems just effed it up with the woke/SJW.

The democrats never accepted Trumps win in 2016 and proceeded from day one to do a special counsel investigation and impeach him twice on bogus evidence. Make up numerous lies including the pee tapes, Russian asset BS, rape, Stormy Daniels, etc. tried to ruin his business and family and spied on him with illegal warrants, and investigate him his entire presidency and never found ANYTHING tangible. How would you expect him to accept the 2020 election after all that? And then they did the classified documents BS and tried to murder him and turn him into a felon on no evidence before the 2024 election.

 

[PierreJG]

Elon Musk bit himself in the ***. He said in 2014 that to activate AI is like awakening the Devil or Demon can't remember. What is Tesla? I read an article about a woman that uses AI for fridge, Microwave etc. My response was, get off your *** and do it yourself. That is why kids and adults are lazy. Yes, I use AI but only for my work as a web developer. A client will give me 1 sentence and tell me. You know what you are doing, build a website. Other than that I refuse to use AI.

According to the article, she's been issuing complaints since 2019.

 

[CBTex]

Don't be bother by the facts, or are Trump's supporters now against the First Amendment they constantly argued it has been taken from them?

How the tables have turned.....

Wait, I'm confused. The first post implies that Trump and his supports wouldn't be for passing a law limiting speech but your post says that Trump ARE against free speech. Which way is it?

Or is the actual answer that to the TDS crowd, anything political is an opportunity to complain about Trump on both sides.

That's got to be Poe surely.....Where's the /s ??

The Democrats tried to murder him, no 'tangible' evidence in any of the courts cases, turned him into a convicted felon with no evidence ??

 

[ScottSoapbox]

US has very recently had other countries shut many pirate sites in Vietnam and other countries. The US has extradition agreements with over half the world. Specific laws get convictions easier.

And yet pirate sites and pirating continues...

...almost like laws aren't a spell that magically fix things.

And do you seriously believe the US is going to extradite someone over a deepfake video? How's the extradition of Kim Dotcom going? The US went after him 13 years ago for much bigger things and is still working on it.

 

[BuckarooBonzaii]

Good luck with that. They'll probably pass legislation to keep the people happy and shut them up and within a few years all is forgotten.

 

[airbornex]

It’s not surprising AI is evolving faster than the laws meant to regulate it. Johansson’s frustration is valid—governments are lagging behind, and by the time regulations catch up, we might already be living in a world where seeing is no longer believing.
