Adobe Trains AI to Detect Deepfakes and Photoshopped Images

#artificialintelligence

At a time when facial manipulation tools, deepfakes and fake facial images are more advanced and common than ever before, Adobe, the multinational American computer software company, has trained AI to differentiate these fakes from original facial photos. A team of researchers from Adobe and UC Berkeley in California, U.S., have worked together to create this tool. The aim of their work is to restore faith in digital media, in a day and age when countless fakes and touch ups occur. The team studied Adobe's Photoshop feature called Face Away Liquify, which is meant to change people's faces, eyes and mouths. Later, they trained a convolutional neural network (CNN), used to analyze visual imagery, to pick up the changes made to the faces in the images.
