The response to Sora seems manufactured. Content creators are dooming about it more than something like gpt4 because it can directly affect them and most people are dooming downstream of that.
Realistically I don’t see how it can change society much. It’s hard to control and people will just become desensitized to deepfakes. Gpt4 and robotic transformers are obviously much more transformative on society but people are worrying about deepfakes (or are they really adopting the concerns of their favorite youtuber/TV host/etc)
a) That change is happening crazily fast b) That the change will have major societal consequences, even if it is just a period of adjustment c) That the speed makes it tricky for society and governments to navigate these consequences

I think it’s helping people realise:

b) That the change will have major societal consequences, even if it is just a period of adjustment
