Intel can see if the person in the video is real or a computer-generated animated image.
Tech giant Intel thinks it has a solution for the growing deepfake problem.
Earlier this week, the company unveiled FakeCatcher, a brand-new software solution that uses a novel approach to deepfake video analysis. Allegedly, it can spot deepfake videos with a 96% accuracy.
Just like previous deepfake analysis solutions, this one leverages the power of machine learning (opens in new tab). However, instead of looking for inconsistencies in the video itself, FakeCatcher analyzes the content to determine whether the person in the video is an actual human being that was recorded at some point or a synthetic product.
How does it achieve that? According to Intel Labs senior staff research scientist, Ilke Demir, it can see whether the person in the video has a beating heart, or not.
