Jake Moore’s Post

My friend Jason Gault of TeamJobs challenged me to create a deepfake of him and post it on his LinkedIn in a misinformation experiment. It received a lot of attention and it even got sponsorship offers! It’s insane what AI technology can now create but luckily this was a safe way of proving its capabilities. Here is a follow-up #deepfake of Jason - and to prove it, I've made it say something he would NEVER say! 😂   With video now being the most popular form of content and elections coming up around the world, it’s more important than ever to verify what you are interacting with.

Be careful doing this, in many countries this is now illegal even though fun. Sharing deepfakes without the person's permission has been illegal in the UK since 31 January under the Online Safety Act. Second do you trust the vendor of the tools to not sell the model of that person you made. Last thing we need is a dark web dB allowing anyone to impersonate anyone floating around without the source material and consent. My concerns are for companies with execs who vblog basically are placing everything needed online for an attacker to facilitate a TOAD scam. Or bigger fraud and I'd theft considering some banks now use phone cameras to verify identity. This risk has been there for a while, not sure on the percentage of attacks but it feels due to an uptick after seeing this post. Happy 2024.
