Google’s New AI Tool Generates Convincing Deepfakes

Time was able to use Google’s AI tool “to create realistic videos, including a Pakistani crowd setting fire to a Hindu temple; Chinese researchers handling a bat in a wet lab; an election worker shredding ballots; and Palestinians gratefully accepting U.S. aid in Gaza.”

“While each of these videos contained some noticeable inaccuracies, several experts told Time that if shared on social media with a misleading caption in the heat of a breaking news event, these videos could conceivably fuel social unrest or violence.”
