of mine because no one should have to make up your own mind. dw, may 4 mines the can you really trust what you see on social media? this was posted as a picture from the gaza strip. but is it really if you for it's a day fake, you'd be brought. the internet is full of them. like this one of letting me a boots in saying rush out will be attacked. so how can you recognize the face for what they are? that's out. so i'll take on this episode of shift donald trump in a loving embrace with covet expert anthony, felt you really, even if you didn't buy that one i, i produced deep fakes, luckett of becoming increasingly convincing. this particular image was used by

florida governor rhonda santos, in june 2023 in an attempt to smear his rival candidate with the us presidential election fast approaching social media is rife with this information and people aren't holding back from using defects in political campaigns. whether it's to define the opponents or to spread fake news, it's still fairly easy to spot fight videos generated by a lie. but it's much harder when it comes to audio. in india, a member of the ruling b, j. p policy released audio recordings of all physician, a politician, colonda boltron garage on it one clip. she don't have to rush on a piece to say that she's tall. she members are corrupt. but an examination by independent a on experts found the audio was likely to instill vakio a gps audio clip was so collected on facebook just before the national elections. in september 2023 played towards the opposition. progressive football capacity. the

coach, mexico seems to be talking about plans to reach the election fund. i s p start checking department said the clip showed signs with manipulation and in the u. k. were labor policy latest a t, as tom a is leading in the polls at the site was posted? lexi, which he said swearing repeatedly, stuff on the audio was also exposure to fake. yet the damage caused by the face can be irreversible, especially in the run up to elections right now. if you don't have a powerful laptop, it still takes ages to make it the fake. but even in the last few years, it's got a much faster. and with the i race, it's only a question of time before the tech becomes readily accessible to anyone. but what does it take to produce a good day fake, and how can you spot one to find out, we went to munich. nicholas knew the ones that deep stakes are getting increasingly

easy to create. he's a cyber security expert in the unit, and that's been looking into different models process. so you want to look out the politician, for example of it you want to clone. and then you find a video that he's getting a speech, maybe this video is 13 minutes long, but every 2nd of the video has 20 to 30 frames. so just by taking this single and video, you may be have 10000 images of the politician. and then you can feed this into the all to encoder, which lots of disentangle the image and then you can manipulate it all to include or is a type of neural network to use from beacon takes in a sense that works a lot like a good pizza shirts, they 1st learn the ingredients of every piece on the menu and what's a good taste and look like. and then before long, they can combine those ingredients differently to make entirely new pizzas. the vi comes of deep fig tools that use such k. i

can be incredibly realistic, has demonstrated here. i am not morgan freeman. and what you're saying is not really sorta to us are much law already in a way. they are much easier to use. the data that we have in order to train these detect underwriting models has mature it a lot. compute has become much more affordable. and also people have just looked at the technology and seeing its value and invested in a timely. so we just have more computed offing tips now and then a few years back to help design a tool that connect into tie some deep fix. it works best when the voice and eclipses generated with a i. when someone creates a video with a good human voice actor, for example, the fakes are harder to detect. and so or than us to fix. okay, so these different types of model struggling than ever the face and you are the models themselves. so we have to continuously update them. um and also it's just

very hard to get access to all the facts and all the good audio out there. all these deep fix are harder to start, the are some harder to create, even so as the pick tools get more sophisticated unaccessible people retain them out. we'll have to adapt to a site. detect is now available for home use as well. with apps such as sense the i o deep where i or this entails real time, the fake detector, which analyzes blood flow under the skin by pixel changes to determine if a video of a person is real. but they will also ways to expose the face using the good old naked lie. you can look for the formed facial features and strangely shape limbs, and keep an eye out for unnatural transitions in the images. make sure you always check the source in context of every post in video, and as always, don't immediately believe everything you say. this also applies to a live chat, bought select chat, g p t they to have been known to give out false information. why do chatbox light?

that's where clar hillman and her team are trying to find house. a cruise to microsoft check for being about various german politicians and found that sometimes it gave incorrect answers. even when the rush information was in it, cited sources. we don't really understand the connection to the links it provides because the links are kind of the links that you would probably get from their regular be who will search engine. so how is it possible that the bush announces incorrectly when its source information is accurate? for one thing chapel to pump, trying to tell the truth, they're trained to give us the most likely next word and the sentence. so it's actually a structural problem, and that's where we are with skeptic that this will change. so that type of will actually like you're not correct and truthful answers in the future. after approaching the mistakes to microsoft, the company make corrections to the thoughts responses, but that doesn't take care of the bigger loom in danger. now the search engines,

which are the places where we go to, to find a new incorrect information, they start using these chat box that actually don't give us the right information. then we actually have a problem for democracy because reliable information knowing what does that actually happening is one of the twin boxes for democracy. companies to make a champ, thoughts of setting up the safety emissions. never the less power helping advances use has to be careful, especially when they're about to vote. it's very important to have my kind of media literacy, especially because the big tech companies that produce is a chatbox. they don't like they don't give enough warning about the dangers that come with using it. some fuel costs predict to the 90 percent of new content on the web to the creation with a i by 2026. and while checkbooks can deliver and that person complex answers is no guarantee they have right ultimately,

how much we trust iowa is up to us according to experts, and especially when on the i fakes and also just regular. this information, like, for example, on the israel, gaza will end up on x. one big reason for that is bought. another is a loan mosque, bolts around noon problem, and social media. they're used to create and whose political agendas can be automated or sending alternative. you can sometimes spelt them by their handles, which are often randomly generated box can perform at the scale. humans can posting lighting, sharing and commenting minutes 5 minutes when one of their posts, as seen as popular by the eye of the social media platform. it gets shared even further. even when the post contains misinformation, or as a keepsake. because so far, social media hasn't master reading. when he alone must fall twitter and turned it

into x. p also disbanded the election integrity team, which has been keeping an eye on political. this information and defects on twitter must meet his position clear in a tweet. according to most of the integrity team were inhibiting the we exchange of opinions ahead of us selections. his idea is that user should track down and report feet user dictates themselves a so called community, you know, but whether that can work in parentheses, debatable, google and meta are taking it different on those platforms, anyone running political ads must 1st disclose whether they use a i tools metal also works with independent fact checkers. well take talk solution is to simply ban all political advertising in a u tech joints like methyl x can now face of the penalties if they don't do enough to come back this information and defects and will actions are also being taken on

the industry level. many media companies, including dw, now have their own fact checking teams that the funk this information. one example is in kenya with a new initiative called from beula, which roughly means finding out or opening your eyes ins why healey to help. they've been listed a kenyan influence on is to cause include, makes take talks about politics in kenya. so i'm ready for it to do and i see things happening as condos and whatnot. i usually just want to talk about is she currently has more than 200000 followers. i just love knowing and hearing that, i'm not i learning these, they could not induce, stuck us thinking like i you guys actually see what's happening on june. and cooley is a research from blue, a collective that tracks false information online. she says that to talk is around,

let's see. it's what then this information is new. assess and be good because of them proficient power of social media. how platforms behave, what's what they allow, you know, the outgoing things and how that works. that's why from bu a team dealt with a store ahead of the 2022 presidential rights to create to talk some warning against pull into this information. be very keen when it comes to very, very slow to video. because it means that the information has been contained to that very short video. and so the possibility of it being a fix, it is very high. and then now with the ai and people just being able to create and to edit things, it's become very easy for you to not just simplify and, but also, you know, and do to reduce and do to or do, did pick tests and then spin them from the help desk to fact check and produce content that we want, again, sharing and verifying the videos. but i also for myself, me being a platform like why because it's so easy to believe anything that's posted on the, on the internet. so it came up to a very me at a very needed time, right?
