The technology world is no stranger to both merits and demerits. And the latest twist in this ongoing saga comes in the form of an AI term – ‘deepfake’ video that is quite difficult to identify. From the name, it morphs a person’s face or body digitally in such a manner that they appear to be someone else.
It may sound good at the beginning but it is one of the worst side effects of the AI technology. Deepfake can easily manipulate a clip or audio content via artificial intelligence and machine learning. Thus, changing the entire image, or video completely with a hyper-realistic view.
How to identify an AI-powered deepfake video?
While it’s quite challenging to recognize a deepfake clip, you can still get some clues and spot the difference between the original video and the morphed one. Some of the ways to identify a deepfake video are:
- Pay attention to unnatural facial expressions such as lip movements
- Odd lighting or shadows in the background
- Unusual audio quality
- Abnormal behavior or situations of a character
Deepfake has kept the security and privacy of a person at the edge. Hence, it is important to shield your data as others can misuse it. Before sharing the content, double-check the sources. Don’t hesitate to question the authenticity of content that seems out of character. Stay informed and updated.
