00:00Along with the expansion of technology, a lot of videos and photos seem to be true at first glance, but it's just a reflection, and the doubts are deepfake.
00:11Some personalities have been victimized and used in fraud, but how can we know what is fake and what is the truth?
00:19Find out in my news as one of the Panata Contra Fake News.
00:25If you don't know me well, you may believe that I can speak Korean.
00:40Mandarin
00:47and French
00:48But all of that is fake.
00:57One example of deepfake is video, photo or audio using artificial intelligence or AI.
01:07And since it first emerged in 2017, deepfakes are becoming more and more real.
01:16It's very realistic now in certain respects, especially when you make a deepfake, you know how to use visual effects or visual effects artists.
01:25How is deepfake made? And why is it becoming more and more difficult to talk about it from the truth?
01:30First, in the collection of data or information, AI learns through neural networks how to create a new image, audio or video based on the user's instructions.
01:43Because computers are faster now, AI can study millions of data in just a few seconds.
01:50It's easier for the public to access. They can use the app and deepfake.
01:55You just need a gaming PC and you can make a deepfake on your own computer.
01:59Because it's easy to make a deepfake, it's now one of the tools used to deceive and spread fake news.
02:07This video is an example of Florida Governor Ron DeSantis who ran as a Republican Presidential Nominee.
02:12He said that he's already behind in his career.
02:15He's a campaigner and he's not falling behind yet.
02:25DeSantis also fell behind, but the video spread quickly.
02:30Experts are worried that there will be more videos like this to deceive or deceive the public.
02:37If deepfake becomes a reality, how will we know the truth and the lie?
02:42Look closely at the teeth while you're talking.
02:45Because sometimes the teeth and the mouth warp.
02:48So that's one thing to watch out for.
02:50But the most important thing to watch out for is the message itself.
02:53Let's ask if this video we're watching has an agenda.
02:57According to an expert, the content or message itself will tell if the video is a deepfake or not.
03:04Look closely at what is being said in the video.
03:08Does the message match the personality of the speaker?
03:11Is this the first time that he said this?
03:14We should learn to think of the context.
03:17What does that mean?
03:18What is the intention?
03:20Or what does the content or video look like?
03:25Is there something being destroyed?
03:27Or is there something being hard-sell?
03:30Products or services?
03:31Usually those two.
03:32Reputation attack or hard-selling.
03:35If the video is being leaked, find out where it first came from.
03:40Is this website known?
03:42Is there another news organization that released the same video?
03:46If not, start doubting.
03:48One of the best places to start is who is the source.
03:51Like any journalist.
03:52Who said that?
03:54Is it a credible source?
03:56Or is it just some random website?
03:58Some random page?
04:00That's where you start.
04:01And then later, what is being alleged by that post?
04:06Because fake news has already spread, especially since the election is near,
04:09it's important for everyone to be a fact-checker.
04:12Ceciline Samson, head of online verification of VeriFiles,
04:16noticed that fact-checking is becoming more and more difficult due to the amount of disinformation.
04:21It's really increasing, especially with the introduction of new social media platforms.
04:26When I started, most of the disinformation,
04:30like fake websites, fake articles,
04:33until it shifted to manipulating photos,
04:38until short-form videos rose.
04:41VeriFiles is the third-party fact-checking partner of Meta,
04:44the owner of Facebook.
04:46This is where they discovered that disinformation is a big business.
04:50The usual target is the emotion of social media users.
04:54For example, this picture quickly spread
04:57showing Pope Francis partying and drinking.
05:01But the pictures are fake,
05:03AI-generated according to VeriFiles' investigation.
05:06You want to be angry or sad,
05:10so that what you do with your finger,
05:14either to share or react to the post,
05:18it translates into money for the publishers.
05:22Aside from fact-checking and debunking,
05:24critical thinking is also important,
05:26or studying and evaluating the posts you see
05:29before you believe them.
05:31In other countries, this is taught to students.
05:34According to Jenina Santos of democracy.net.ph,
05:38sometimes it's harder to track down when false information comes out.
05:43Pre-bunking is also important,
05:46where we ensure that we are the first to spread true information.
05:52We want to be the first
05:54so that we can frame our countrymen
05:57that this is what's really happening,
05:59these are the facts.
06:00We can call it truth in affiliation.
06:02Even the government,
06:04that is in charge of the possible effects of fake news,
06:07especially the lack of regulation in the country.
06:09In the ASEAN, we don't have a law about online harms.
06:13We also don't have regulatory powers over social media networks
06:16and over OTTs, which is over-the-top boxes
06:19like chats, survivors, etc.
06:22So that actually emboldens them to do things
06:26because they don't regulate.
06:28There's also no proper reporting mechanism.
06:35For many Filipinos who have access to the mobile internet,
06:38the chances of being deceived by deepfake, disinformation, and misinformation are high.
06:45But there's a lot we can do to fight this.
06:49Be observant,
06:50don't believe everything you see,
06:52and use technology to find out what's fake.
06:56And most importantly,
06:58make sure that the information you get
07:01is credible and trustworthy.
