I think this solves the wrong problem. Most of these deepfakes have obvious places where you can tell they are renders. I think it's more important to have tooling that can tell when a video has been altered. I'm more concerned with the manipulation of grainy low-res video. Police body cameras are an incredibly tool for police departments to fight misinformation (well, only when people watch the whole thing). Is editing these types of videos as obvious has high resolution video, or is it more easy manipulable?

> I think it's more important to have tooling that can tell when a video has been altered. It's probably going to be a cat and mouse game. Think about how far along green screen technology has come. You watch a movie in the 80s and 90s today and the green screening is super obvious to our 2020 trained eyes. Imagine how someone from the 80s and 90s would perceive the greenscreening from 2020? I imagine there will always be a cutting edge of deepfakes that will travel halfway around the world before the truth comes out and won't spread to all the people that believed the fake. I can't help but to think that as a society, we're entering the "schizophrenic" phase of popular reality. Read these quora answers on what it's like to have schizophrenia and think "What would a society collectively afflicted in the same way behave?" https://www.quora.com/What-is-it-like-to-have-schizophrenia-1 https://www.quora.com/What-is-it-like-to-have-schizophrenia-... It's going to be weird to see society have to operate in a state of constant disbelief of so many things that were previously accepted as fact.
