I have since edited my original comment.
AI fakes will always be an issue. Nothing will ever prevent someone from creating AI content and passing it as real. Especially with the complete lack of regulations on AI model makers. At the same time AI fakes are inherently dangerous for democracies in the sense that anybody could anonymously spread misleading fakes all over social network to disrupt the democratic process and it would be very difficult to fight.
I don't know what solutions we can find for that. I guess we will see in the EU if our approach is effective or not. Or if it is abused to censor speech. Considering our own lawmakers are also digitally illiterate I wouldn't be surprised if there is loopholes to exploit.
