Since the first deepfake in 2017, there have been many developments in deepfake and related-synthetic media technologies. When people think of a deepfake, they commonly think of a video like the one of Bill Hader transforming into Tom Cruise, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Al Pacino and Seth Rogan on David Letterman’s show in 2019. These are examples of deepfakes that are not harmful. But as we’ve seen, there is a dark side to AI (artificial intelligence), ML (machine learning) and it has nothing to do with the technology, but with the people using it.
This class will introduce the audience to deepfakes, their good vs evil uses and how to detect them utilizing better observational skills as well as with open source tools. We in critical infrastructure and key resources need to be aware of the inherent risk of deepfakes by malign actors.
