Facebook has developed an algorithm for detecting deepfakes

Facebook researchers Tal Hassner and Xi Yin said their team, along with Michigan State University

has created software that detects deepfakes to find out how they were made and where they are spread from.

Deepfake is a realistic manipulation of audio and video materials using artificial intelligence.

Our method will make deepfake detection and tracking easier. Usually the program only has to work with the image, there is no other information.

The developers note that any adjustment to images leaves “fingerprints”—these are unique patterns left on the images: the new software works on these principles.

The algorithm will help to efficiently investigate incidents with deepfakes, the authors note.
