I deleted all my photos online, the day I saw nano banana. A lot of people called me paranoid, but this technology just seemed too dangerous. I am now also seeing open source models catch up with them, which was the exact thing I was scared of.

Does it scare y'all too? Especially open source part?

You should be very worried. To scare you more, people use icloud and goolge photo to store your photos on a cloud you do not control and have nothing to do about. Deepfakes are getting harder and harder to spot.
