Deepfake hunters

Deepfakes are often used in ads and films, for instance when actors play younger versions of their characters. However, the technology also offers high potential for misuse. A spin-off of the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Lausanne is using AI and deep learning to create software to help specialists detect fraud.

Artificial intelligence helps detect anomalies inside images. The software then marks any manipulated areas. Detectors are also programmed to recognize manipulated faces, providing a valuable tool for fact checkers.
