Fake AI images keep going viral - here are eight that have caught people out
Full Fact said the government and regulator Ofcom must prioritise public media literacy ahead of next year's general election, warning that "a lack of action risks reducing trust in what people see online".
Fact-checkers have highlighted notorious examples of AI-generated images going viral this year, including Prince William and Prince Harry embracing at the King's coronation.
No doubt there are people who don't check online stories, videos and images, but they are an ineradicable feature of life. This is about promoting mainstream media as your reliable, go-to, cosy, battling for you fact-checker.

I can foresee little tags: "This site is PML accredited".
Or perhaps each reader will need some sort of NVQ in PML in order to access certain sites. "No PML? Sorry, this site deals with factual news stories. We recommend you log onto our sport and celebrity sites, or pornography if you are over 18".
Sam - accreditation of sites could easily come, as could an NVQ in PML or whatever they decide to call it. Maybe an official star rating like cafes and restaurants.
All power to responsible soc-med.
James - but of course, our version of responsible.
