alt Hacker NewsI’m spending way too much time on the RealOrAI subreddits these days. I think it scares me because I get so many wrong, so I keep watching more, hoping to improve my detection skills. I may have to accept that this is just the new reality - never quite knowing the truth.

Before photography, we knew something was truthful because someone trustworthy vouched for it.
Now that photos and videos can be faked, we'll have to go back to the older system.

"I may have to accept that this is just the new reality - never quite knowing the truth."
Some people, quite some time ago, also came to that conclusion. (And they did not even had AI to blame)

What if AI is running RealOrAI to trick us into never quite knowing the truth?
Those subreddits label content wrong all the time. Some of top commentors are trolling (I've seen one cooking video where the most voted comment is "AI, the sauce stops when it hits the plate"... as thick sauce should do.)
You're training yourself with a very unreliable source of truth.
