Still don't think deepfakes will be a problem?

Still don't think deepfakes will be a problem?

The tech is getting so good it's scary. Can you tell the difference in these videos between the fake and the real thing? A horrible version of Trump went viral in Belgium and caused mass outrage. So what happens when the tech is spot on?

Say want you will about Beck, and I know all the haters will show up prontissimo, but he's right about this.

Is the video Beck talking about deep fakes or being one?

We will need artificial intelligence to tell us what is real and what is fake.

And then how do you know the AI isn’t being deep faked?

A world without reliable omnipresent surveillance like um 60 years ago? Ummm okay, doesn’t sound THAT bad...

I don’t really give a poop about a spoiled holyweird starlet or politician getting a fake porno made about her like everybody seems to be worrying about. The only thing that concerns me is it might be harder to get solid evidence to put away a psychopathic criminal

I watched part of it. The examples Beck used were lame and obvious fakes.

There is nothing new here except to notice that Beck doesn’t know how to put on earbuds and for some reason likes to turn on a fake fireplace in June.

Beck is a Deep Flake. And he’s not getting my clicks. His boy Mark Levin can continue to bail him out.

Doesn’t sound like Beck to get hysterical over nothing. Oh wait, it does.

If that’s the best they can do, it’s definitely not to the “scary” stage yet. Kinda like a bad Korean movie dub. Looks like they’ve manipulated the mouth movement, leaving artifacts, and STILL the mouth doesn’t completely match the audio.

Yeah he is quite a dramatic. Look the issue Beck raises is a good legitimate issue. However his examples and execution were really bad.

I feel sorry for the guy. This is his job and perhaps the only thing he thinks he can do and yet he is a joke.

He said that they were pretty apparent fakes. (The voice, especially.) But they go viral, especially the one of President Trump.

If videos this fake are believed, then what happens when they improve the technology so that the fakery is better hidden?

That was Glenn’s point.

I understand his point. But it’s an old point and his examples did not come close to making his point. It was a pathetic video.
