Researchers have developed a novel 'universal' detector capable of identifying deepfake videos with unprecedented accuracy. This tool distinguishes between authentic videos and those manipulated using artificial intelligence, regardless of the specific AI technique employed. The detector effectively flags face swaps, complete AI-generated content, and other forms of digital fakery. This advancement represents a significant step forward in combating the spread of misinformation and restoring trust in online video content. Its ability to generalize across different AI manipulation methods sets it apart from previous detection tools, offering a robust defense against evolving deepfake technologies.
