OpenAI Releases ‘Deepfake' Detector to Disinformation Researchers

Experts warn that artificial intelligence-generated content could influence upcoming elections, prompting OpenAI to release a deepfake detection tool specifically for its image generator, DALL-E. While the tool is a step in the right direction, OpenAI acknowledges that it is only a small part of the overall solution. The company plans to share the detector with disinformation researchers to gather feedback and improve its effectiveness. OpenAI is also involved in the Coalition for Content Provenance and Authenticity (C2PA) to develop credentials for digital content. The industry is under pressure to prevent the creation and dissemination of misleading and malicious AI-generated material. However, there is no single solution to combat the issue of deepfakes.
