One of the methods used by russian propaganda is the spread of deepfakes, in particular, on Ukrainian government officials.
Deepfake is a combination of the terms deep learning and fake.
How is a deepfake created? Images of a person are used to combine and overlay other images or videos using artificial intelligence.
Deepfake is most often used to create pornographic videos for entertainment or revenge. Deepfake pornography appeared on the Internet in 2017 and was later banned by Reddit, Twitter, and Pornhub.
Deepfake videos are most often posted on YouTube, Vimeo, and TikTok.
The first “viral” deepfake video was with Barack Obama: https://youtu.be/cQ54GDm1eL0
Please be aware that the enemy continues to use dirty methods of information warfare.
