Challenging Deepfakes: Detecting AI-generated Images With Geometrical Analysis and Deep Learning

Once upon a time, we used to say: "Seeing is believing". Nowadays, deepfakes have become a serious challenge to the credibility of visual content. They are being weaponized in all possible ways, from generating non-consensual pornography to fostering misinformation and political distrust. AI-synthesized images are especially dangerous since generating them requires limited skills and affordable tools. While there is no silver-bullet algorithm for detecting this kind of deepfakes, combining several types of analysis increases the chances of success.

In this webinar, we'll see how Amped Authenticate, the leading software for image and video authentication, empowers analysts' abilities to fight and win the deepfake challenge. We'll show how to detect inconsistencies in shadows and reflections, a common defect in AI-generated imagery, and how to use Authenticate's powerful deepfake detection classifiers that use AI to combat AI.
