Where do we go from here?

Yeah some people must have different levels of face blindness or something, this is all uncanny valley for some other people.

Given the rate this stuff has progressed in a few years, don't count on being able to recognise it by eye forever.

And frankly, even if a large minority of people can still identify the difference immediately (which tbh I reckon is close to the point we're at now), that makes for a majority that will glance at an image and take it as real without question.

Those people can vote and shape our world
