Is this really even a deepfake? It just looks like a juxtaposition.
It does seem worse than what people create with DeepFakeLab.

#22I always find it interesting to watch the trickle down of news I find here on HN. I live in a very, very, very conservative part of the US. It always goes the same; see fake thing called out for being fake on HN. One week later, hear rumblings related to the fake thing in my community. One week after that, hear people openly talking about how that fake thing is true, but Google/MSM don't want you to hear about it. Su…
I live in a very, very, very conservative part of the country and it’s nothing like the caricature you just mentioned. It is, though, safe, polite, and friendly. And people are happy to leave other people alone.

The Clinton stuff is really funny. HN is not really the place for heated political commentary but there is deep irony there with regards to how a certain portion of the population responds to criticism of Trump and his policies (lately, mostly surrounding Ukraine and denying them aid) and how often they bring up the Clintons.

#24I wonder who is viewing that thinking it's real? It's obviously fake and a bad fake at that.
Old people, many folks with IQ in the lowest 20% spectrum... and these are just the honest types. Then there are whole groups of folks so deep in the hoax echo chambers they treat anything coming from outside as fake and yet another attempt to get them.

Put this deepfake through a couple levels of email forwards, GIFs with burned in captions and lots of dodgy media spots of "Did Zelensky actually say this or didn't he? Some people are saying he did." and it's going to be taken for ground truth.
There's a subreddit called "AteTheOnion" which chronicles people mistaking wildly obviously fake and humorous articles from The Onion and other sites.
If people aren't able to discern those articles from reality what hope is there?

#29I've seen a deep fake with Putin "surrendering" on 28th of February: https://youtu.be/ZbudZw1LlHg I guess the video itself was made even earlier than that.
The video is not excellent, but the audio is pretty spot on, if you ask me.
Edit: re-worded the first sentence.

#30How is this worse than the last 30 years of Photoshopped war images?
