An old well developed technology needs to be adopted and the public needs to be educated on its use. AI cannot defeat cryptographic signatures which could be used to verify the authorship and the integrity of any digital content. I would support laws that help facilitate mass adoption of this technology. PGP is 33 years old.
It still bugs me how little general public knows about this. Even shows don't have a clue, or are scared to explain this.
Like this is a solved problem, please please please just use the solution that has been here for the entire time.
The "general public" has very little knowledge about most of what happens in society.
They don't understand where everything that keeps them alive comes from, let alone how the internet or deerpfakes or so-called "AI" works.
Probably not pgp as it's been thoroughly broken.. but I get what you're saying
Pgp is an application. Algorithms get broken, not applications.
Eh. Old small RSA keys can be broken and PGP is quirky enough to not be good for automatic scripted validation. But 4096 bit RSA or ECC or newer PQ algorithms still works fine and there's newer schemes for signatures that are solid
Please renew your keys.
I get that the whole asymetric encryption is (as everything security related) only as strong as the people following the best practices, but there is no other way to do it.
