Deepfake

A deepfake is a type of manipulated media, typically video or audio, created using artificial intelligence (AI). It employs machine learning algorithms to superimpose real people's faces or voices onto other footage, making it appear as if someone said or did something they didn’t. While deepfakes can be used for entertainment or creative purposes, they pose concerns because they can spread misinformation, tarnish reputations, or deceive viewers. The technology behind deepfakes is powerful and sophisticated, requiring advanced computer models to generate highly realistic but fake content.
