    I’m sad to inform you that the first thing I thought when seeing this was “maybe it’s AI” and my day is ruined

    Fuck

      Many of the camera companies are now making cameras that can put a hash in the photo to identify it as real. Hopefully before long we start to have a way to verify this on the client side.

        What prevents the AI from putting a hash in the photo?

        Does it get validated online so that the camera company keeps a copy of the hash on their end? (Which is also problematic.)

          I had many of the same questions. I have not investigated further. I’m sure some enterprising hacker will figure out how to hack it like they do everything else.

          Don’t most of these photographs use editing to at least touch them up a little? I don’t think many published photographs are actually the raw photos.

            Any good photographer will shoot in raw. And in order to get a picture it has to be processed on a computer, there is no way around it. I wonder how that’s supposed to work with these watermarks.

          I wonder if this will backfire in the way printers adding yellow dots to pages backfired.

        This has been discussed but not implemented, yet. Adobe and other software companies would also have their own hashes. It is an interesting solution, that is for sure. Time will tell if it’s effective.

      I thought exactly the same, and there’s not much that can be done to absolutely convince me that it’s not :(
