    Not as easy and accessible as now.

    Before, I don’t even know how to erase a pimple on my selfies. Now I can easily generate picture of a photorealistic cat girl riding a bike naked on Time square that could fool any elders in my neighborhood.

      Accessibility makes it the opposite of convincing.

      And a skillfully modified photo is going to convince just about anyone.

        There are some really subtle details experts can look at to detect Photoshop work, such as patterns in the JPEG artifacts than can indicate a photo was reocmpressed multiple times in some areas but not others.
