For you legal types: Is there anything Tom Cruise or anyone else can do if their face is being used in this way? https://t.co/m1C54A8LAr

It’s the voice acting, and the switching from grin to not-grin, that’s so impressive: the deepfakery is excellent but so is all the rest. https://t.co/oU735hPOQj

The threat-vector for deep fakes is not in copy-pasting celebrities
— Brett Winton (@wintonARK) February 26, 2021
(which, easily disavowed and black-labeled)
But in creating videos of the believable and sympathetic (and artificial) masses, to be amplified by a credulous media and latched onto by craven politicians. https://t.co/2c2zlvuncr
Welp! The convincing deepfakes have arrived.

Not difficult to imagine how this could cause chaos in politics. https://t.co/sHMWbCbLpM
So, how are we all feeling about #deepfakes becoming more and more of an everyday reality? Considering that people can‘t even tell the difference between journalism and conspiracies...?

We’re probably 12 months away from deep fakes being indistinguishable from real videos, and after that I have no idea what happens. https://t.co/einh9XH3hJ

Deepfakes are a serious problem and our society isn't really for it. This will make misinformation a much bigger problem. https://t.co/sTIEFtlXQi

when i tried @sensityai's deepfake detector on still images, it was right every time (i'm told in tests it's about 98% accurate). but the impressive tom cruise deepfakes on tiktok? it couldn't catch any when @JaneLytv ran them through. if that doesn't make you nervous, it should. https://t.co/XPc2fjSxpr

The lack of any ethical rules addressing how this tech gets abused, mostly to harass women, is a huge problem: https://t.co/eAO1x6cIjV / https://t.co/d3rbIb9g5F https://t.co/VBP8e31XeH
These Tom Cruise deepfakes doing rounds are insane. Imagine this tech used as a counter military strategy, a world leader seen as declaring war, but its a deepfake. Not a question of if, but when... https://t.co/3wH3Yptsu4

Good news for sex workers- they can claim everything is a DeepFake.

I think if any decent pornographic ones of me were released I'd use chaff countermeasures and release thousands of low-quality ones via bot to obfuscate plausible ones in search results. https://t.co/6BLEv05SOp
maybe deepfakes will get so real that photo/video won't mean anything and we'll just have to revert back to seeing things with our own eyes to believe them https://t.co/GvgrmNQpfW

Deep fakes are getting scary good and taking over TikTok. Every public figure should just be on there with a verified account - even if they don’t want to make content - to make it easier to identify their fakes. Here’s Tom Cruise: pic.twitter.com/xoSJt1bvVR

See this video of Tom Cruise?
— Mckay Wrigley (@mckaywrigley) February 25, 2021
Well, it’s not Tom Cruise.
It’s AI generated synthetic media that portrays Tom Cruise onto a TikTok user using Deepfakes.
Seeing is no longer believing. pic.twitter.com/CRix0hD9OH
Despite being done with an actor/impersonator one can still tell this is fake but we’re fast approaching the point where most can be fooled, even without a huge budget behind it. https://t.co/WUxlOv25jR

Let's run them through @sensityai's new deepfake detector tool to see how they do ?
