Yeah, what is far more likely to happen is the process of generating propaganda for your cult members (i.e. political supporters) will become automatic, probably based on a simple prompt.

With AI generated video, how do you know whats real? Well, the person you trust will tell you so! So the blues and the reds won’t just be arguing over different interpretations of facts (i.e. like left media leaping to cast trump saying the word “bloodbath” as a call to incite civil war, instead of the obvious comment on economic futures it was meant to be. Up to and including reporters who have recorded video of them using the term “bloodbath” in a fiscal context claiming “No one would ever use the word that way! He’s a violent facist!” the delulu is real), and instead they’ll each have their own set of ‘facts’ and ‘evidence’ with ‘video proof’ supplied by their chosen drug delusion dealer.

No side will be immune from this, because any side that doesn’t participate once it starts will be at a competitive disadvantage. Society will become more blindly tribalistic, and those who seek out the truth will be ostracized and demonized, by everyone.

Ok, so who had “World ends by politicians getting automated lying tools” on their apocalypse bingo card?
