What if the deep fake was so real it was hard to tell? Now if the deep fake was highly invasive and humiliating? Can you see the problem?
I think that the point this comment is trying to make is that because it has become so easy to make these images, their existence is not very meaningful. All deep fakes are very realistic. You can't tell fakes from originals.
Like as an adult, if I saw an "offensive" image of a co-worker, my first assumption would be that it's probably AI generated, my first thought would be "which asshole made this image" rather than "I can't believe my co-worker did [whatever thing]".
Not really. The more extreme it is, the more easily people will believe you when you say it's a deep fake. Everyone who matters (friends and family) will know it's not you. The more this sort of thing becomes commonplace, the more people will simply shake their heads and move on.
People kill themselves over much more mundane things than this. I think you overestimate teenagers unfortunately, not everyone can handle it as lightly as you would. Telling people to just "shake it off" will simply not work most of the time.
Sadly, you have a point. Somebody with good support at home and a circle of friends can weather this sort of thing, but others may feel helpless or hopeless. There needs to be an effective place to turn to for kids who are being bullied. Unfortunately that doesn't seem to exist.
That depends on a how a specific person is seen and treated by their surroundings.
A teenage girl who is already a victim of harassment or bullying for example will be treated very differently when humiliating images of her surface in her peer group, compared between someone who is well liked in school.
People who do this have to be judged much more harshly. This can't become the next item on a list of common sexual harassment experiences every girl and women "has to" experience.
