Isn't literally every deepfake detection technique just an oracle that you can use to train a better deepfake creator?

At some point in the future, AI will make better humans than naturally occurring humans.

The built in "touch up my appearance" feature in my phone, various video chat software etc. means that future is already here [1].

I know. It's like we are going to need reverse Zero Days after a while. As soon as they publish it becomes the old new way to detect Deepfakes.

Friedrich Nietzsche called that "Superhuman", or "Übermensch".

Hmm... so if I ask it to add an apple to the scene it just looks for an apple and says "yep, found an apple".

That is not an algorithm to detect fakes, it is an algorithm to detect predetermined edits.

Steganography/watermarking has been not only known but used for practical purposes for a long time.
