Advances in artificial intelligence have made it easier than ever to generate convincing synthetic audio, images, and video, blurring the line between what is real and what is fabricated. Dubbed “deepfakes” to reflect fake media that is difficult to distinguish from the real thing, these technologies span the entire spectrum from political misinformation to personal harassment, posing new challenges for individuals and society alike. How do these systems work? What risks do they introduce for trust, safety, and democracy? And what tools - technical, legal, or educational - can help us defend against their misuse?
