Deepfakes are videos or images that look real but are actually created using artificial intelligence (AI). These can sometimes be fun, like when a fan makes a video of their favorite singer as a superhero. But they can also be scary and cause problems, because they can trick people into believing something that isn’t true.
Recently, a deepfake video of pop star Taylor Swift talking about politics appeared on Truth Social, a social media platform. In the video, it looked like Taylor Swift was saying good things about former President Trump, but it wasn’t actually her, it was a deepfake. The pop star said this deepfake video brought out her worries about AI.
Imagine you see a video of your friend saying they don’t like you, but it’s not really them, it’s a deepfake. That would feel pretty awful, right? Now think about how many people could believe something that’s completely made up just because a deepfake video looks convincing. This is a big problem, especially when it comes to important stuff like elections or what famous people like singers or movie stars say about the world.
The thing is, we all need to be smart about what we see online. It’s like crossing the street – you have to look both ways before stepping out. With videos, you have to think twice to make sure what you’re watching is really true.
