I agree that it seems hard to find a positive use for this kind of thing. What I could envision happening is essentially the end of the video testimonial for product reviews. Nobody will ever believe a "busy mom's" TikTok style review for an egg-whisker, skin cream, hair supplement etc again.

It will eventually make consumers extremely cynical of everything they're ever shown and basically break advertising.

Maybe that's okay?

Thanks! I didn't want to sleep tonight anyway.

(Pithy, but yes, these are even more creepy, and it's gonna be so stupid easy for imbecilic sociopaths to put these to use)
