#Zoom just changed their terms and conditions to include using anyone's video and audio for training #AI with no option for opting out. You too can help train #deepfake s!
Living with a disabled spouse, I used Zoom a lot to get through the ongoing global pandemic.
What alternatives are out there for remote teaching/meetings? #BoycottZoom
Ich glaube, dieses #DeepFake-Video vom "Zentrum für politische Schönheit" hat eine Büchse der Pandora geöffnet. Wenn die das für ihre Zwecke nutzen, dann werden das auch andere tun. Bisher war das immer noch verpönt. Dieses ARD-Video war noch AFAIK von Unbekannten in Umlauf gebracht worden. Jetzt werden es alle für alles machen und immer sagen: "Ja, bei uns ist es auch nur Kunst oder Satire. Wir wollen damit nur auf etwas aufmerksam machen und zuspitzen."
“What Tesla is contending is deeply troubling to the Court […] Their position is that because Mr. Musk is famous and might be more of a target for deep fakes, his public statements are immune […] In other words, Mr. Musk, and others in his position, can simply say whatever they like in the public domain, then hide behind the potential for their recorded statements being a deep fake to avoid taking ownership of what they did actually say and do.” https://www.npr.org/2023/05/08/1174132413/people-are-trying-to-claim-real-videos-are-deepfakes-the-courts-are-not-amused #Deepfake#ElonMusk
In Spanien berichten zahlreiche Mädchen, dass KI-generierte Nacktfotos von ihnen in der Schule zirkulieren. Der Fall wird jetzt zum nationalen Skandal – weil die Mütter der Betroffenen sich organisiert haben, um gegen die verantwortlichen Mitschüler vorzugehen.
Spanien: Jugendliche verbreiten KI-generierte Nacktbilder von Mädchen
Von fast zwei Dutzend Mädchen in Almendralejo kursierten KI-generierte Nacktbilder an ihren Schulen. 10 Jungen und eine KI-App sollen verantwortlich sein.
KI in der Politik: AfD zeigt falschen Goldschatz und erklärt es nicht
Die AfD hat Gold geerbt. Auf ihrem Parteitag wird davon angeblich ein Bild gezeigt – doch ein Mann darauf hat sechs Finger. Das Bild ist künstlich erstellt.
Why shouldn’t it be illegal to make a #deepfake of any real person without their certified and explicit consent? I can’t think of good arguments against it.
Habt ihr's auch gelesen, Marco Buschmann fordert ne Kennzeichnung für KI-Bilder?
Nun, der Verkauf des Buschmann-Zitats als "Forderung" durch u.a. die Deutsche Presse-Agentur ist Käse. Die EU hat sich jüngst auf eine KI-Verordnung geeinigt, inklusive Kennzeichnungspflichten für Deepfakes. Da muss man gar nix mehr fordern.
Bardella fait mine de s’offusquer des deepfake sur Marine Le Pen et Marion Maréchal, évoque une "utilisation malveillante" et veut une "régulation". Ça tombe bien, le Parlement européen vient d’adopter une première loi de régulation sur le sujet. Cinq ans qu’il est euro-député…
«Facebook ha un grave problema nel contenere i #DeepFake di truffe finanziarie che sfruttano i volti di politici italiani e giornalisti famosi.»
«Adesso è il turno di GiorgiaMeloni e di Enrico Mentana col TgLa7 il post è stato già segnalato alle autorità competenti»
Il post di @alexorlowski mostra questi video che passano come messaggi sponsorizzati (il che configura Facebook come non semplicemente una vittima, ma come un complice della truffa...)

The ability of #AI tools to readily generate highly convincing "#deepfake" text, audio, images, and (soon) video is, arguably, one of the greatest near-term concerns about this emerging technology. Fundamental to any proposal to address this issue is the ability to accurately distinguish "deepfake" content from "genuine" content. Broadly speaking, there are two sides to this ability:
Reducing false positives. That is, reducing the number of times someone mistakes a deepfake for the genuine article. Technologies to do so include watermarking of human and AI content, and digital forensics.
Reducing false negatives. That is, reducing the number of times one believes content that is actually genuine content to be a deepfake. There are cryptographic protocols to help achieve this, such as digital signatures and other provenance authentication technology.
Much of the current debate about deepfakes has focused on the first aim (reducing false positives), where the technology is quite weak (AI, by design, is very good at training itself to pass any given metric of inauthenticity, as per Goodhart's law); also, measures to address the first aim often come at the expense of the second. However, the second aim is at least as important, and arguably much more technically and socially feasible, with the adoption of cryptographically secure provenance standards. One such promising standard is the C2PA standard https://c2pa.org/ that is already adopted by several major media and technology companies (though, crucially, social media companies will also need to buy into such a standard and implement it by default to users for it to be truly effective).
So some of you might remember this post (and the subsequent demonstration on national news) of using a voice cloning tool (AI, Audio Deep Fake) by @racheltobac
(If you haven't seen it, go watch it. Rachel is amazing.)
I'd never needed to do a similar attack before, but! I was just tasked yesterday with researching it.
Asked some friends for a turn-key solution to clone voices. Got pointed to a website. Signed up for $1 a month (first month... then it goes to $5 a month thereafter).
Pulled some audio of my mark down from a youtube interview (a podcast works great too).
Only needed a minute's worth of audio.
Uploaded it to the website for cloning.
Typed out a quick script for the voice to read.
30 seconds later, I had my cloned audio.
It was so good, that it even included natural voice inflections AND!!! verbal pauses like umm's and uhh's that matched the mark's original presentation. I can't tell the difference between the cloned voice and the original person.
Y'all... voice cloning and audio deep fakes are well past the ease of "script-kiddy" level. Anyone can do it.
