How threatening is Deepfake AI? Analytics Insight

Technology is powerful, it can make you believe in something that doesn't even exist! If you thought technology is all about the positives, then welcome to the dark realities it has to offer. Technology can be dangerous, digital representations, manipulated videos pave way to fabricated settings that insanely appear real, supported by sophisticated artificial intelligence, to serve a frightening negative purpose. Deepfake, a technology pioneered in 2014 by Ian Goodfellow is based on generative adversarial networks (GANs) a class of machine learning frameworks designed by Ian Goodfellow and his colleagues. If we break Deepfake, into deep and fake, it simply means a model that uses deep learning technology (a branch of machine learning) applying neural net simulation to massive data sets to create fake audio, video, image against the real ones used as model input.
