alt Hacker NewsRead the rest of my comment please. Is the single motivated malicious user able to do as much damage as all of the blocked attempts put together? Probably not, since if there's really all that much riding on it, people will point out it can be bypassed.
Should we also abolish Pangram, because it's not 100% accurate? Someone might be convinced a text is not AI-generated when it actually is! We should get rid of it rather than fool people into thinking it can be determined accurately. What about antivirus? We should abolish it as well rather than fool people into thinking that their software is ever 100% safe. What about HTTPS? We shouldn't call it "secure" shell because the computer you're connecting to could be compromised! I could go on and on and on.
The median instance of AI image generation isn't evidence in a court case. It's cyberbullying, or deepfakes, or fake news. It's called "slop" because there's a lot of it being churned out at low effort.
You're missing all of the points that there could be by focussing on random people.
While it is always an individual tragedy when people treat each other badly (e.g. through deepfakes and all), the real threat does not exist on that level.
This is about misinformation and disinformation, so we're talking state actors. And with that, the 99.9% hypothesis does not hold true.
