The first 'authenticated deep fake' created by an AI company has been released, ushering in a world where online images can no longer be trusted
Truepic, a digital content verification service, and Revel.ai, a company that uses artificial intelligence to create realistic synthetic images, have collaborated to create and release the world's first 'verified deepfake video.' Created with the consent of the female subject, the deepfake video is highly realistic and highlights the need for systems to identify synthetic content.

This video was synthesized using deepfake technology with the consent and cooperation of Nina Schick, an artist with extensive knowledge of generative AI.
However, there is nothing unnatural about it, so it's hard to tell which parts are composite.
As the woman in the video raises the issue, 'As we enter the age of artificial intelligence, the line between reality and fiction is already becoming blurred,' her face changes, and the image that appears to be showing the real Mr. Schick appears.
The video was released in three stages: First, Schick was filmed multiple times from every angle.
The AI model is then trained until it can output images that are indistinguishable from the real thing.
The deepfake video created by Revel.ai was given a certification label by Truepic that indicated that it was synthesized using AI and included information about the creator.
With the development of AI, it is becoming increasingly difficult for the human eye to detect deep fake images, so only after these labels are added can the authenticity of the images be confirmed.
'The age of deepfakes is upon us, and any footage that you can't verify origins from needs to be viewed with suspicion. Digital footage today should not be trusted,' said Truepic CEO Jeffrey McGregor, acknowledging the growing need to label synthetic content.
