“#AI tool detects Deepfakes by analyzing light reflections in the eyes<\/strong>”<\/p>\n

Deepfakes are being used for a range of nefarious purposes, from disinformation campaigns to inserting people into porn, and the doctored images are getting harder to detect<\/a>.<\/p>\n

A new AI tool provides a surprisingly simple way of spotting them: looking at the light reflected in the eyes.<\/p>\n

The system was created by computer scientists from the University at Buffalo. In tests on portrait-style photos, the tool was 94% effective at detecting Deepfake images.<\/p>\n

The system exposes the fakes by analyzing the corneas, which have a mirror-like surface that generates reflective patterns when illuminated by light.<\/p>\n

In a photo of a real face taken by a camera, the reflection on the two eyes will be similar because they\u2019re\u00a0seeing the same thing. But Deepfake images synthesized by GANs typically\u00a0fail to accurately capture this resemblance.<\/p>\n

Instead, they often exhibit inconsistencies, such as different geometric shapes or mismatched locations of the reflections.<\/p>\n
