Yes, but who cares whose responsible? Are you telling me you're going to find the guy who photoshopped the picture and jail him? Legally that's possible, realistically it's a fiction.

They did this to stop bad PR, because some people are convinced that an AI making pictures is in some way dangerous to society. It is not. We have deepfakes already. We've had photoshop for so long. There is no danger. Even if there was, the cat's out of the bag already.

Reasonable people already know to distrust photographic evidence nowadays that is not corroborated. The ones who don't would believe it without the photo regardless.

In general under US law it wouldn't be legally possible to jail a guy for Photoshopping a fake picture of President Biden killing a priest. Unless the picture also included some kind of obscenity (in the Miller test sense) or direct threat of violence, it would be classified as protected speech.
