Definition of Deepfake?
Deepfake is artificial intelligent technology that uses machine
learning called deep learning to digitally manipulate media photos,
images or videos to duplicate a person into another person's
acts or conduct in an image or video, creating a realistic but fake
media. This can include face or body swapping onto another
person's face or body thereby misrepresenting the truth.
Government to Introduce New Deepfake Porn Laws and
Penalties
The federal government plans to introduce legislation targeting
digitally altered 'deepfake' pornographic images, with
offenders to face jail sentences for sharing and creating them.
A 'deepfake' can be a still image, video, or sound file.
It refers to media in which a real person's face or body has
been altered or edited to create a false depiction so that they
appear they are doing or saying something. They are often extremely
realistic.
