If a time traveller posts a video from the future (of say some famous person giving an interview), it probably would appear to us as if its an AI generated video of the said person.

    Indeed. But sending a video back from the future would require backwards time travel and that one doesn’t exist.

        Doubtful. It’s not compatible with the current laws of physics and would break causality. Also some of those potential future time travellers should have shown up by now.

          Causality is just determinists starting with “time travel is impossible” and finding a fancy name for it.

          I don’t want to say they’re wrong, just that asserting casualty in a discussion about time travel being impossible is kinda like asserting Godwin’s Law in a discussion about whether or not Trump’s a nazi.

            No … it doesn’t. Slowing the passage of time is not the same as going backwards in time.

                Huh? What are you talking about?

                I will always read the comment after it was written, which is in always the future relative to when it was written.

                  When you read it, I was in the future relative to when it was written. It stayed in the past behind me and became your present in its future.

                  Jeez. It’s like you don’t even understand time travel. 🤷‍♂️

                    I’m not sure I buy that. Just because the comment is the same doesn’t mean the information it’s made of didn’t move through time the same as the rest of us.
