from the article:

Real-time, controllable deepfakes ready for virtual camera injection. Created for performing penetration testing against e.g. identity verification and video conferencing systems, for the use by security analysts, Red Team members, and biometrics researchers.

Reminds one of the vulnerable world hypothesis. It's only a matter of time before a technology comes along that is both destructive and so simple any fool can use it.

Anything that can be created, will be created. However, that doesn't free you from all moral culpability. If you create something, make it freely accessible and easy to use, then I think you are partly responsible for its misuse.

I'm not saying that they shouldn't have created this, or that they don't have the right to release it. But to create it, release it, and then pretend that any misuse was entirely separate to you is at best naive.

That’s a legal disclaimer, not a moral one.

It is an attempt at a legal disclaimer. It may not hold up in court.
