New tools use AI ’fingerprints’ to detect altered photos, videos

As artificial intelligence networks become more skilled and easier to access, digitally manipulated “deepfake” photos and videos are increasingly difficult to detect. New research led by Binghamton University, State University of New York breaks down images using frequency domain analysis techniques and looks for anomalies that could indicate they are generated by AI.
