Crazy stuff that could (will?) occur! Were there ANY sort of ethical guidelines formulated whenever computers became more operational, like back in the Fifties? That was also around the golden age of science fiction, if I'm not mistaken, so one would think that there would've been some speculative chit chat back and forth between the programmers about these sorts of scenarios. Maybe there was, but humans are now ignoring wisdom and instead going full throttle with all the "glorious" possibilities that the synthetic deep fakes can bring about (not really glorious, because lying only ever adds to confusion).
The deception goes wider and deeper than deep fakes.
Remember when Googles motto was "Don't be evil"? That went out the window. In fact they had some employees who got fired because they exposed Google's evil.
Back in the olden days, as the old'ns say, the main concern for programmers, ethically speaking, was nuclear war. Now there are few guardrails and the world is a lot trickier. Luckily even madmen don't relish dying.
Yes, I'm sure that the deception is rampant beyond what most of us currently know, and that Google is playing a big part in that.
"We are unlikely to face a rebellion of sentient machines in the coming decades, but we might have to deal with hordes of bots that know how to press our emotional buttons better than our mother does and that use this uncanny ability, at the behest of a human elite, to try to sell us something--be it a car, a politician, or an entire ideology." --Yuval Noah Harari "Why Technology Favors Tryranny"
No animal, human or machine would ever be able to out manipulate my mom. May she rest in peace. She considered it a gift. I, unfortunately, was holding the door for everyone else in that department. I would be the worst spy ever. The spy they left out in the cold.

That thing, Harare, isn't human. It's far deep in sociopathy if it is. I think it's a reptilian like Bourla.
