Deepfake news: synthetic video, voice cloning and AI-generated images, and the fight to detect and control them. We track fraud and scam cases, election and political deepfakes, non-consensual imagery, detection and watermarking tools, platform policy at YouTube, Meta and X, and the laws being written to deal with AI-generated likenesses. Each story explains what happened and why it matters, with a link to the original reporting. Updated daily by Daily Inference, the free five-minute AI news email.
