With photos, I could see a cryptographic solution. Of course it would still need some kind of centralized trust, but it's doable if people cared enough. It could be applied by cameras themselves.
replyThis is already a thing. Leica cryptographically signs images. Useful for establishing trust for photojournalists I guess. I’m not sure how deep the chain goes. Do they have hardware attention down to the sensor? You could take a picture of a screen, but that would likely have some other tell-tales. Especially if Leica took another step like putting a depth sensor in the package and added its data to the signature.
replySo take a photo of a screen showing an AI image.

replyAnd equally faked by bots.
Because the photographer builds trust, over years, by not manipulating their images using AI. All trust is erased if anyone spots the manipulation.
