In the age of deepfakes, can you trust your own lying eyes?

A picture is worth a thousand words, unless of course that picture happens to be a deepfake generated out of thin air by AI. On this week’s KCBS In Depth program, we consider the far reaching impact of this emerging technology and its potential for abuse. 

Guests: 

• Hany Farid, a UC Berkeley professor with a joint appointment in electrical engineering & computer sciences and the School of Information; he studies deepfakes and how to detect them
• Corynne McSherry, who is the legal director for the Electronic Frontier Foundation

Host: Keith Menconi
