Study: ‘Deepfakes’ fooling more people as we head into the election

Hosts: Leah Murray & Rusty Cannon

New research from Utah Valley University looks at how convincing ‘deepfakes’ and disinformation can be. And the results are staggering; we – as humans – majorly struggle to tell ‘deepfakes’ apart from reality. Brandon Amacher, Director of UVU’s Emerging Tech Policy Lab and instructor for the UVU Center for National Security Studies walks our listeners through the study. KSL at Night hosts Leah Murray and Rusty Cannon discuss ways you can avoid being fooled by ‘deepfake’ videos.
