Intel's new AI can detect deepfakes with 96pc accuracy

FakeCatcher can detect deepfakes in real time by analysing pixels in a video to look for signs of blood flow. Intel has developed an AI that it says can detect in real time whether a video has been manipulated using deepfake technology. FakeCatcher, part of the chipmaker's responsible AI work, claims to detect deepfakes within milliseconds and with a 96pc accuracy rate. "Deepfake videos are everywhere now," said Intel scientist Ilke Demir, who designed FakeCatcher with Umur Ciftci from the State University of New York at Binghamton. "You have probably already seen them; videos of celebrities doing or saying things they never actually did."
