Social media

In this era of AI, deepfake technology is doing such work, which is having a negative impact on the image and thinking of people. Deepfake is a threat to society, and it is also a threat to democracy. In view of this, the Danish government has started the process of bringing in strict laws. Denmark will be the first country to bring such strict laws against deepfakes. In this law, the fake use of someone's voice or image without permission will be punishable, and strict action will be taken against those who spread deepfake video or audio. Social media platforms will have to remove such content.

What is Deepfake
Deepfake is an advanced technology that is used to edit or change audio and video. In this, using Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning, the real video or audio is changed in such a way that it appears realistic (real) while it is completely fake. This is the reason why it becomes difficult to differentiate between real and fake; the word Deepfake is made by combining Deep learning and Fake.

How does Deepfake technology work?

Machine learning models of AI are used to create deepfakes, and this technology works on two types of algorithms: a first encoder and a second decoder.

Encoder: The job of this algorithm is to prepare a copy of the face and voice by analyzing the video and picture of the real person.

Decoder: After the work of the encoder is completed, the work of this algorithm starts. This algorithm mixes the prepared copy with another video or audio in such a way that this process continues until the copy that looks real is ready.

There is a big danger due to Deepfakes

Political lies: During elections, the public can be misled by making fake videos of leaders viral.

Social blackmail: Fake pornographic videos can be made to harm someone's reputation.

Fake news: Riots can be instigated by showing any news as truth.

Cybercrime: Deepfake technology can also be used in crimes like banking or identity theft.

What is the purpose of Deepfake?

Spreading fake news and misinformation

Character assassination and cyberbullying

Social, political instability

Use in fraud and cheating.

Crisis of trust

Take these precautions

Do not share any sensational video immediately after watching it.

Confirm the source of the video.

If in doubt, check with tools like Google Reverse Image Search.

Do not blindly believe anything viral online about someone.

Report suspicious content on social media platforms.

Future of Deepfake

Deepfake technology is being used rapidly, and as AI and machine learning improve, it can become even more accurate and effective. It is said that if something has advantages, then it also has disadvantages. The dangers associated with it will also increase, due to which governments will have to keep a close watch on it. There are indeed positive aspects of the use of deepfakes, but their misuse can also cause massive damage.

What is its global need?

Concerns about deep fake technology are growing globally. Countries like the US, the European Union, and India are now considering it a matter related to national security. International organisations are demanding that a global framework be created in which every country can implement laws at its own level.
