Youtube has a new tool to detect AI-faked celebrities – Computerworld

Fake AI clips of celebrities are becoming increasingly common, something that affects, among other things, artists and actors who have their voices and looks cloned without their permission.

With that in mind, YouTube has announced a collaboration with Creative Artists Agency (CAA) aimed at detecting and removing fake AI clips of celebrities.

CAA has created a database called the CAA Vault that contains digital copies of celebrities’ faces, bodies and voices. The idea is that the new tool can compare the content of uploaded Youtube clips with the information in the CAA Vault; if there’s a match, the clips should be able to be deleted automatically.
