Seems like an AI arms race just begun
The battleground of what is real and fake will very quickly move into 'superhuman' realms of sensitivity, leaving us meaty minions as spectators trying to figure out which AI to trust.
Now we can use this new AI to train another AI that can defeat it. And so continues the great cat vs mouse chase. I don't think this is a problem that is ever going to be solved. Deep fakes will become more and more popular, and harder to detect.
Earlier quoted context omitted.
it's great at making them better, yes
If the people trying to stop deepfakes can do it so can the people trying to produce them anyway. The best we can do is some way of digitally signing videos and software displays it as authentic or not but then they just make fake youtube style sites that say its authentic. The problem will go on and on.... Fake news will always spread for one reason or the next.
Even simpler, someone will build an optical setup that sends deepfake pixels onto a signing image sensor.
Worse. All information - even facts and truth - has been subverted. What happens when there is no trust? Is this not a road to the New Darker Ages?

Antibiotics resistance is also a cat and mouse game. It's still useful to keep playing the game though.
The problem will increasingly be "whose algorithm do we believe". Internet has revealed that people believe mostly what they want to. We have seen that a large subset of people are believing Bill Gates is behind the pandemic. Why would masses somehow be more rational in picking the most rigorous and objective neural network to recognize deepfakes, than they are in making sense of the world in general? In the end we w…
