Why did so many people swallow this crap in the first place?

Dupe. From yesterday (183 points, 82 comments):
Ah, I think I searched for "jpegxl", that's why there was no match.

"Yes, re-opening.".
> Given these positive signals, we would welcome contributions to integrate a performant and memory-safe JPEG XL decoder in Chromium. In order to enable it by default in Chromium we would need a commitment to long-term maintenance. With those and our usual launch criteria met, we would ship it in Chrome.

The interesting tidbit here is SynthID. While a good first step, it doesn't solve the problem of AI generated content NOT having any kind of watermark. So we can prove that something WITH the ID is AI generated but we can't prove that something without one ISN'T AI generated.
Like it would be nice if all photo and video generated by the big players would have some kind of standardized identifier on them - but now you're left with the bajillion other "grey market" models that won't give a damn about that.
I asked Gemini "dymamic view" how SynthID works: https://gemini.google.com/share/62fb0eb38e6b

"By default 1 frame per second (FPS) is sampled from the video."
OK, I just used https://gemini.google.com/app, I wonder if it's the same there.
The default FPS it's analyzing video at is 1, and I'm not sure the max is anywhere near enough to catch a full speed tennis serve.
Ah, I should have mentioned it was a slow motion video.

Source?
I asked it to analyze my tennis serve. It was just dead wrong. For example, it said my elbow was bent. I had to show it a still image of full extension on contact, then it admitted, after reviewing again, it was wrong. Several more issues like this. It blamed it on video being difficult.
