Deep-Fake a great digital threat

  Today, we cannot imagine living our daily lives without science and technology, artificial intelligence (AI) support, as we are developing in this field, our dependence on them is increasing, making our life much easier. is . You can get information of the whole world with one click, you will get many software related to every work on computer and mobile, so that you can do every work.

  Just as every coin has two aspects, there is another aspect of science and technology that brings some evils with them. These same evils have been in discussion for the past several years "deepfake" . Which is used not only to spread misinformation but also to create various other problems.

 What is Deepfake?

 If Deepfake tries to understand in simple words, it usually means that a real image video audio is distorted with the help of software, machine learning, artificial intelligence (AI) and that changed fake image, video, audio Is presented in such a way that it looks real, then it is called deepfake.

 Changing manipulations or faces in photos is not a new discovery today. It has been done since the 19th century. Then as technology evolved, this manipulation started to be done in motion picture and then by the 20th century, more rapidly. The technique of manipulating and manipulating face took digital video, audio even in its possession.

 Problems with deepfake

 Initially it was used for laughter jokes, entertainment, to change the faces of heroes and heroines in many film scenes, but soon it took a different form and was used by people for their own benefit. In addition to doing harm to others.

 It began to be used in politics to denounce the front representative, his speech, picture, audio is converted into objectionable speech, picture which spreads misinformation about him which leads to his defeat.

  Apart from this, DeepFake has been used very much to spread fake news, to remove people from real issues or to incite violence, some images, videos which have never been made in real, and are made from one community to another. Is turned against.

  Terrorists use their agenda to seduce youths and lead them to commit wrongdoing against their own country, using it for personal gain, for revenge and blackmailing someone Is enough.

 In addition, any type of CT scan in the medical line can put or remove a tumor-like disease, which makes many people make illegal money.

 Women mostly appear to be victims of this, according to Artificial Intelligence company 'Depress', about 15,000 DeepFake videos are uploaded every month, 99% of which is uploaded on the pornographic site where the face of ordinary women, heroines is put and it is real. Is spread like that to discredit the person, along with the intention to blackmail many times.


 It becomes even more harmful where people who are less educated do not have much knowledge of technology, if people believe in what they see then easily use it to spread and establish their agenda of spreading DeepFake. It is done, Deepfake audio is used to cheat many times in which people are not able to trust the real once they are hunted. This can actually do a lot of damage.

  Although it is difficult to identify which audio, image, video is also fake or real, researchers from the USA presented a resort a few years ago that DeepFake videos do not blink the eyeball, which a few days later editors broke Removed and more difficulties have increased.

 Ways to avoid deepfeck

 There is no rule or regulation in India that directly or specifically relates to DeepFake. However, we have some existing laws like the right to privacy, defamation, computer related crimes, to overcome the misuse of this technology and the crime rising due to it. Copyright infringement etc. with the help of which we can control it a lot.

 Although many big companies like Microsoft, Facebook, Twitter recently started the DeepFake Detection Challenge to identify and remove DeepFake, which has been successful to a large extent, but it is a very large area that spreads very fast. That is why it is very difficult to stop it.

 We will have to find its solutions at the grassroots level, we will have to make people aware of this and tell people what can be the harm. Also, at our own level, before forwarding anything, we should check whether what is in front of us is real or not, without investigating if we spread it further, we know that inadvertently in that link. Get involved, who are spreading wrong information, due to which many people are losing their lives for no reason, and the spreaders of our agenda are using it more to see its benefits, then we will have to find solutions to solve it at our own level. And only then the link of this wrong information can be broken.
