        Subject: content authenticity

Some here may know of the Content Authenticity Initiative, "a community
of media and tech companies, NGOs, academics, and others working to
promote adoption of an open industry standard for content authenticity
and provenance" (https://contentauthenticity.org). As an amateur
photographer I found out about the CAI from my camera manufacturer. It's
not difficult to see how important such work could be now that
artificially intelligent systems are sufficiently developed that a
reliable distinction can be made between human and artificial creations,
genuine and fake and so on.

But perhaps you know more and can comment?

Yours,
WM
