The image manipulation and "Deep fake"

The image manipulation and "Deep fake"

Below this text is the video, what is created by the YLE. The thing is that by using actor and image manipulation this kind of fakes, like the president of Finland is requesting the third season. This kind of deep fakes are really difficult to separate from the real videos, and that's why they are effective tools for destroying the reputation of some people. Image manipulation, what is used in the satellite images might cause even the war. And here I must ask, were some of the satellite images, what justified the attack to Iraq manipulated?

This kind of things are causing that we cannot trust anymore even the moving picture, and this is one thing, what we must realize before we are starting things like political activism. The thing in deep fake is that the person, who is targeted for this kind of things doesn't even need to know this kind of manipulation.

And this makes things like deep fake and artificial intelligence more dangerous than ever before. When we are thinking about deep fake, the person who is in those films might not even exist. Or that person might be imprisoned and the image manipulators are giving the information, that the person is free to make the decisions.

When we are thinking about risks of image manipulation, we must realize that when somebody is making the pro-grade, the image manipulators might fake the sources. When the work is released for supervision, the sources might be chanced on the hard disk, and that would make possible to declare that dissertation.

This is one way to make this kind of "jokes" when some scientists are going to fake, when the images, what they are showing are uncovered by made by some kind of image manipulation program. Those things are really funny when they are showing in the public media. But they are not funny when those things happen for some person, who must make the thesis again.

Maybe in every picture, what is taken in the army, would put the SS-insignia, which makes them look like "funny". But when this kind of jokes is going too far, somebody should stop that kind of things. When we are thinking about image manipulation, there is a possibility, that in the images, what are taken by using the recon satellite could be manipulated.

I mentioned at the beginning of this text the possibility, that the images, what are taken by recon satellites could be manipulated. And that would cause terrifying things if the decisions of the use of force would be made by using manipulated images.

That image manipulation might cause even the war if there would increase the missiles and tanks in those images. When we are thinking the famous image of the "red lake" in Iraq, the red color might be caused by the legionella bacteria, and there was probably no blood in that water. But that kind of images justifies the use of force in that kind of places. So if the images have been manipulated, the innocent people would get punishments.

The mystery of alien megastructure has almost solved

The mystery of alien megastructure has almost solved

The alien megastructure or one of the claimed alien megastructures has been solved, and the reason for the unusual change of brightness of the star has been uncovered the asteroids, what is orbiting the star in the unusual cluster. So there might not be civilization, what would be the scientific sensation of the millennium.  

One of the things about that kind of things or structures in the universe is that we must get better observations and use the best possible equipment before we say something about those things. That kind of ideas that there could be alien civilizations are only one track in the lines of research. But we must keep our mind open when we are talking about the alien civilizations. 

We cannot remove any kind of solutions before observations. And then we must realize, that we should dare to introduce different opinions about things, what has been introduced as the scientific facts. In philosophy and science, we must realize that people need very good poker face if they want to tell that they have different opinions with the so-called big thinker. But if we want to change things, we must dare to do that. We must say something, what is different than the common opinion. 

Great scientists have always faced some kind of a cheat, and one of the best examples are the "jokes" where Charles Darwin was introduced as a monkey. Would you think that this kind of things is feeling nice? And after a long time, I sometimes think, that what the drawer of that image wanted to show? Was that person believed in being fun? 

But maybe those things allowed that the evolution theory was denied. Maybe there was some kind of voting campaigns, that how many people believed that Darwin's theory of evolution was accepted or deny. And the side, who won that election would get a bottle of beer for that thing. This kind of things is increasing the assertiveness of science. The main purpose of scientists is always fall theories, what younger colleagues have been introduced, and repeating words, what famous people have said. The science is meaning that all evidence about things is collected before the judgment has been given.

In some writings is visible the attitude, that the use of own brains is always prohibited in places like University unless it supports people own opinions. And if somebody dares to introduce other opinions what have not included the texts, what are published before those people, that would cause laughs. 

We are forgetting that we should trust some writings, and if writer shares information about what is faked for purpose or some other reasons not true, the responsibility for that information is the person who has written the original article. Not persons who use the trusted platform as the source for their articles. 

If the original article is published in the respected magazine, the people have the right to believe that the article is properly checked. And if the images are made by using photoshop, that thing would seem a very good joke. But it might cause the extra work for astronomers, who are using those images in their texts as the source. 

So when we are looking at the news about the cosmic megastructures, we must remember that we have only the knowledge, what is delivered in the news, and if we want to produce the new data about the object, we must buy the very large telescopes. So before we cannot get precise information about the object, we should make very big investments, or wait that somebody else is publishing the more precise data about that kind of things.
