Deepfakes circulating online, while may be developed greatly at this stage, may still show signs of obvious flaws. These mistakes are often caused by the still imperfect AI failing to generate certain features (often known the intelligence’s blind spots).
Below, you’ll be able to see an example of one of the more obvious deepfakes verse one that looks seeming accurate.

Look For Flaws
Looking for misconsistencies in misinformation tucked away in an “news article”, social media post or advertisement requires using a differing set of skills – instead of focusing on the actual content as closely – using common sense more majorly. Try using the skills listed – including checking for overly exaggerated language, AI looking images and grammar errors.
When the majority of people come to think about deepfakes they commonly associate with the AI’s incapability to make the fake’s eyes blink. In most cases, this isn’t exactly the answer (however some other abnormalities are due to be caused surrounding the eyes). However, it is worth to note the many other common mishaps that are significantly harder to be polished, such as, discolouration, blurring, speech sounding unnatural and unusual head, mouth and/or neck size and behaviour.
