Description
Deep Fakes: Algorithms and Society explores the use of artificial intelligence to create highly realistic audiovisual clips. For over a century, photographs and related media have been tied to specific events and times through chemical reactions or digital sensors. However, modern deep learning networks can generate photorealistic images without any connection to actual events. This shift raises questions about how society should manage the impact of these new technologies on our understanding of reality. The book delves into the multidisciplinary approach to deep fake research, covering topics in Communication, International Studies, Writing and Rhetoric. It examines the role of deep fakes in generating information disorder while also providing a basis for legitimate tools used in entertainment and creative industries. Scholars, students, policymakers, journalists, and the general public will find this book an informative resource on the subject, offering insights into the challenges posed by deep fake technologies.
