Episode description: The problem with selling fake photos is that people may not know they
are fake. Blatant deception seems to be the name of the game and if
money is involved, then it's open season. But the issue may be less abut AI.I. and its capabilities as much as it opens a window on the way in which humans manifest a strong desire to believe what they believe--and to use technology to render that belief in images, and then to use those images to transform belief into something more concrete. This suggests a new expression of intersubjectivity in the age of virtual realities. Holographic realities now seep into the physical world the way it had always poured into the virtual. The interactions between them produce hybrid cognition of the4 real in which belief is now better able to make itself more concrete--more felt, in the physical world (discussed in "The Soulful Machine, the Virtual Person, the “Human” Condition, and its Social Constitution --An Encounter with Jan M. Broekman, Knowledge in Change: The Semiotics of Cognition and Conversation (Cham, Switzerland: Springer Nature, 2023)", International Journal for the Semiotics of Law, forthcoming 2023).

For background:
Adobe is selling AI-generated images depicting the Israel-Hamas war. While some are pretty obviously computer generated, others are more realistic, including one image that has been shared online by some smaller websites and in social media posts — drawing concerns the AI-generated content could contribute to misinformation, Australian outlet Crikey and Vice's Motherboard reported. . . Adobe Stock, which sells images submitted by individual artists, requires that all AI-generated images on the platform be labeled as such. But some of the images for sale are marked as AI-generated only in the fine print, not in their titles. (Business Insder access here).
