What this is starting to reveal is that there's a clear need for some kind of chain of custody system that guarantees the authenticity of what we see. Nikon/Canon tried doing this in the past, but improper storage of private keys lead to vulnerabilities. As far as I'm aware it's never extended to video either. With modern secure hardware keys it may yet be possible. The difficulty is that any kind of photo/video mani…
I'm curious what is the reason for deepfake research and what the practical application is. Can someone explain the commercial need to take someones likeness and generate video content? If I was an a-list celebrity, I would give permission for coke to make a commercial with my likeness, provided I am allowed final approval of the finished ad? Do I have an avatar that attends my zoom work calls?

(but actually, because laziness is the driver of all innovation, I wouldn't be surprised if this happens).

Disney has been using digital likeness to maintain characters who's actors/actresses have died. Princess Leia is the most prominent example. Arguably, there is significant realistic value in being able to generate a human-like character that doesn't have to be recast. That character can be any age, at any time, and look exactly like the actor/actress.
For actors/actresses, I suspect many of them will start licensing their image/likeness as they look to wind down their careers. It gives them on-going income with very little effort.

No, we are merely returning to the pre-photography state of things where a mere printed image is not sufficient evidence for anything.
Why is this research being done? Is this some kind of arms race? The only purpose of this technology I can think of is getting spies to abuse others. Am I going to have to do AuthN and AuthZ on every phone call and zoom now?
