This algorithm automatically spots "face swaps" in videos

The ability to take one person's face or expression and superimpose it onto a video of another person has recently become possible. In particular, pornographic videos called "deepfakes" have emerged on websites such as Reddit and 4Chan showing famous individuals' faces superimposed onto the bodies of actors. This phenomenon has significant implications. At the very least, it has the potential to undermine the reputation of people who are victims of this kind of forgery. It poses problems for biometric ID systems.
