Deep Fakes

Deepfakes are highly realistic videos or images created using artificial intelligence (AI) techniques, especially deep learning. They manipulate existing visual data to replace or alter faces, voices, or actions, making it appear as if someone is doing or saying something they never actually did. These synthetic media can be used for entertainment, education, or misinformation. While they showcase advanced technology, they also raise ethical concerns due to potential misuse in spreading false information, harming reputations, or creating fake news. Detecting deepfakes often requires specialized tools as the technology continues to improve.
