"A primary concern for Petrucelli, Jenkins, and Antell, longtime documentary filmmakers and co-founders of the Archival Producers Alliance (APA), is to avoid a situation in which AI-generated images make their way into documentaries without proper disclosure, creating a false historical record."

They shouldn't be in a documentary period. A documentary is meant to be factual and historical so nothing fake should be injected into it.

Documentaries often include recreations of events, such as historical events that weren't filmed. It's usually noted as being a recreation or re-enactment. If AI-created images are used instead and are noted as being such, I don't really see the problem, assuming the images are curated to depict the scene accurately.

[–] DdCno1@kbin.social 48 points 1 year ago (2 children)

The problem in both cases is that people remember these artistic depiction as real, even if there's a disclosure.

Are we worrying about the fully functional adults that still need to be told not to drink Draino?

It wouldn’t be such a concern if they didn’t make up like 40% of the population.

Global population? You say "the", so you obviously mean the one we have in common.

[–] BearOfaTime@lemm.ee 24 points 1 year ago (1 children)

We're all susceptible to this stuff, even when we're aware of it.

[–] masquenox@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

As someone who actually worked in the corporate propaganda industry... I concur.

If you think you are impervious to this, then I got news for you.

[–] db2@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I think I'm pretty impervious to the impulse of drinking drain cleaner. 🤷

[–] Daft_ish@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Ok but drinking draino is the cure for all life's problems. To each their own, though.

[–] db2@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

That or seeing Batman.

[–] homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

Yeah television doesn’t affect anyone. That’s been a great success. Fox News anybody? Pizzagate?

That argument extends to any realistic recreation of events. It's not wrong, I'm just not sure what could be done about it.
