McAfee shows how deepfakes can circumvent cybersecurity

You can no longer believe what you see. Deepfakes, which use artificial intelligence to make people appear to say and do things in videos that they haven't said or done, have been growing more realistic at an alarming rate. And it's a matter of time before they're used to try to circumvent cybersecurity. Steve Grobman, chief technology officer at cybersecurity firm McAfee, and Celeste Fralick, chief data scientist, warned in a keynote speech at the RSA security conference in San Francisco that the tech has reached the point where you can barely tell with the naked eye whether a video is fake or real. They showed a video where Fralick's words were coming out of a video of Grobman's face, even though Grobman never said those words.
