It is only a matter of time before this is weaponized against us. There will be videos of Clinton admitting to crimes and Obama admitting to being born in Africa.

The days of objective truth are numbered. We won't be able to believe anything anymore.

means for truth. It's just a matter of time now before a deep fake comes out with someone admitting to a crime, and the actual person has no way to defend. This is the end, man. I can't even process this.

They used CGI and superimposed Tom Cruise's face onto Bill Hader? At least that's what it looks like. It's Bill Hader's voice though, and this is pre-retirement Dave without the beard and long hair.

It really is spooky, but I thought I could see one or two quick transitions only because I was looking for them. Probably if I hadn't known ahead of time, I wouldn't have noticed the transitions.
