I don't think politicians will get involved but it will be a major story as more deepfakes happen.

I think this is missing an option for “there is bipartisan support for increased regulations”

Given yesterday’s discovery / apprehension / indictment of Life Corp and Walter Monk in TX by NH’s AG I can see deep-fake audio robocalls—at least— emerging suddenly in the media’s and public consciousness. (Moreso had it been df of Trump ).

This on top of the nonconsensual fake-videos on X which Taylor Swift has so far tacitly ignored… she has so much more important stuff going on in her life. But it’s a powder keg

If Twitter/X is a good metric, I don't really see tweets about AI routinely reaching >50k likes this year like some other issues do. Unless it's an unusually bad take involving Midjourney or something like that.
