> When I get asked if the person in a video is real, I still feel pretty confident to answer

I don't. I mean, I can identify the bad ones, sure, but how do I know I'm not getting fooled by the good ones?

That is very true, but for now we have a baseline of videos that we either remember or that we remember key details of, like the persons in the video. I'm pretty sure if I watch The Primeagen or Tom Scott today, that they are real. Ask me in year, I might not be so sure anymore.
