DEEPFAKE

Deepfakes are so named because they use deep learning technology, a branch of machine learning that applies neural network simulation to massive data sets to create a fake. Artificial intelligence effectively learns what a source face looks like at different angles to transpose it to a target, usually an actor, as if it were a mask. Tremendous advances were made by applying adversarial generative networks (GANS) to pit two AI algorithms against each other, one creating…
