Re: Experts Bet on First Deepfakes Political Scandal

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3666086/posts

One new danger hurtling towards us is “deepfakes” – audio and video material created by software which depicts real-life people saying and doing things that they have never done or said. We have for years been familiar with the CGI techniques employed by filmmakers. They used to be laborious and costly. Now they are cheap and quick. Deepfakes could be used to make a politician seem ridiculous or reprehensible—or to issue an order to surrender.

Take the quiz: Can you spot the deepfake?

I've been lurking but not writing much lately. I can't thank you all enough for "being here" when I need comfort and patience! Meanwhile, I came across this new book that looks very interesting. There is a chapter on QAnon and the author writes about Pizzagate, Weinstein, Kavanaugh, Khashoggi and "Messages at a Funeral", lol.

I ordered a copy and I'm thinking about getting the mug...
