A judge in Washington state has blocked video evidence that’s been “AI-enhanced” from being submitted in a triple murder trial. And that’s a good thing, given the fact that too many people seem to think applying an AI filter can give them access to secret visual data.

Just for now, soon this practice will be normalized and widely used, after all we are in the late capitalism stage and all violations are relativized

We do not need AI pulling a George Lucas.

Used to be that people called it the "CSI Effect" and blamed it on television.

Funny thing. While people worry about unjust convictions, the "AI-enhanced" video was actually offered as evidence by the defense.

During Kyle Rittenhouse's trial the defense attorney objected to using the pinch to zoom feature of an iPad because it (supposedly) used AI. This was upheld by the judge so the prosecution couldn't zoom in on the video.

Yeah, this is a really good call. I'm a fan of what we can do with AI, when you start looking at those upskilled videos with a magnifying glass... It's just making s*** up that looks good.
