Deepfakes and Synthetic Media- Protect Yourself

Deepfakes are a form of synthetic media created using artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning techniques to manipulate or generate visual, audio, or video content. By training AI models on real footage or audio, deepfakes can create realistic but entirely fake media that impersonates real people, places, or events. While deepfakes have legitimate uses in entertainment, like in film and animation, they are often misused for malicious purposes.
