Deepfakes - an innovator's opportunity

Earlier this year we saw a deepfake audio of a CEO being used by malicious actors in a fraudulent attempt to extract funds from a business. In future, this technique could be used to distribute greater political misinformation/ speech and other distrust, or create reputational damage for well-known brands, leaders and personalities using images, video and audio.

Innovators may find significant social good for detecting deepfakes and building reputation systems & services - our ability to discern the truth will get more complex!

There should be a way of detecting who caused the fake as well as that it is a fake. Large penalties will be needed to deter the practice. Are laws keeping up with the tech developments?

I agree, these days, it is hard to distinguish deep fakes with the original ones!

Look younger in your 40's

Chinese researchers say they have developed an artificial intelligence technology that can calculate a person’s biological age from a 3D image. Biological age is a measurement of age based on various biomarkers, and can change due to lifestyle and other health factors.A team from the Chinese Academy of Sciences said their study showed that yoghurt, coffee, fruits, chicken, beans and “eating on time” could help to slow down ageing. In contrast, smoking, drinking alcohol, eating pickled food, taking antibiotics and exposure to ultraviolet could make people look older. It also showed that people age fastest in their 40's.https://www.scmp.com/news/china/science/article/3102104/chinese-ai-technology-shows-people-age-fas
