Black athletic director of Baltimore high school arrested for creating AI deepfake of white principal to stage race hoax
Police say they have conclusive evidence that Darien was the one who made the recordings and that he was trying to retaliate against Eiswert who was investigating Darien’s alleged misuse of school funds.
I'm glad Justice was served, but how did they come to the conclusion that it was AI generated? as AI generations get better and better, I'm worried about shit like this being more convincing. the article doesn't really mention the test that they use to determine it was fake.
As this shit gets more convincing, every politician and scoundrel is going to yell "deepfake!" to dismiss real evidence against them.
And the smarter ones will make obviously fake deepfakes of themselves to muddy the waters.
