I recently saw this video, and I do understand the importance of captchas in preventing bots from flooding social media.

However, there isn't much stopping a normal person from just completing the captcha and then copy and paste an AI generated response, image, etc.

Additionally, news sources may already be trying to use AI to generate their articles.

I remember seeing that someone also used an AI to generate an entire fake New York Times article, but I can't find a link.

I'm extremely concerned for the children that are growing up navigating this world. It's hard enough being an adult in it right now.
