This reminds me of a recent Radiolab episode [0] in which they discuss a new technology that would allow you not only to remove words from audio, but also to add new ones in the speaker's voice -- and likeness, in the case of video. They made an example video [1], which was not super-convincing, but a very good demonstration of what it may be able to do in the future.
Of course, the focal point of the episode isn't the technology itself, but the implication it could have on society once it gets good enough that its output is virtually indistinguishable from real video (i.e. fake news in the form of convincing-looking videos).
Highly recommended if you have the time.
