(I do not think it was AI.)
I wish there were more places to legally enjoy BASE jumping on US public lands.
If it was a brand new account, then it seems possible that it's a fake.
But if somebody also had to hack his account to make this video... I suppose it's not impossible but you'd really, really be pushing "reasonable doubt" to it's limits.
Finding an original copy on a go-pro would likely be pretty compelling evidence but this (and the more scary politically centered questions like this) are why I wish we had a way to build a durable chain of custody into these technologies. It is infeasible from everything I've seen but it would be a big win for society.
If the prosecution can prove it was legit, that's prison for sure.
You trying to start a union in your workplace? Expect video of you jacking off in public to leak online. Video of cop mercilessly beating a black guy? Inadmissible, could have been AI.
It will only get worse as video and audio generation get better and better.
This flock stuff is b.a.d.
BASED jumping is an acronym that stand for five categories of fixed objects from which one can jump:
- Buildings
- Antennas
- Spans
- Earth
- Deepfakes
