The irony of that is kind of hilarious. There's pressure to even blockchain the authentic, non-AI stuff just so it doesn't get lost in the dross and can preserve itself. But being dragged into the cryptosphere and blockchain world is another techno worry all by itself.
It would be like DRM, except used to establish the provenance of a copy rather than to prevent copying. There would be hassles with the tech, most likely with expiring certs, and offline viewing. So it might only be practical to use for selective applications where authenticity is important. In the future, courts could require a valid sequence of signatures or blockchain records for any digital media admitted as evidence, like car cam or body cam footage, security camera footage, interviews, et al. Libraries and collections that take digital media could adopt the same requirement.

I was trying to instruct AI to generate a character that is an amalgam of the trickster from the dark projects and Djinn from wishmaster 2 movie(1999)...
well the quality is passable

If we can transform the trickster so that he has the ability to manipulate people to convey their wishes, that would be very terrifying.
this is the idea of the fan mission: you are trapped somewhere and you have to say your 'appropriate' wish. a wish that you think is appropriate is not necessarily appropriate. The trickster will grant it in another form/way that you don't expect. in the context of AI there is a term called prompt engineering and here I present you a wish engineering. You can be trapped in your own wish loop. Your side mission is to save others from being tricked into giving up their wish.
wishmaster 2 may be a cheesy gorefest movie but there was something that drew me into it
