Does anyone know what is actually real anymore? It’s becoming an increasingly difficult question to answer. In a world where every piece of information is scrutinized and challenged, the value of trusted advisors has never been more vital. For lawyers, this presents a unique opportunity to demonstrate their reliability and expertise in a time of uncertainty. But how can they harness this to their advantage? This issue's striking cover features the fabulous Cat Casey, brought to life through genAI. While we can agree that Cat looks fantastic in Viking horns, the darker side of deepfake technology cannot be ignored. Cases of image manipulation and misuse are rising, often resulting in lawsuits and damages amounting to millions. These developments underscore the importance of authenticity - a quality the legal profession holds dear.
