"We will not give up, we will not concede that wont happen. Cant concede with this stolen election" Spoken at the rally hardly 12 hours ago. Trump is either dead or in hiding or god knows what. But this video is not himself. Modern deepfake tech is already extremely good and everyone knows it will be used in politics at some point. People just didn't anticipate for it to be used so soon.

If you have no idea how good it is nowadays. Watch this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9WfZuNceFDM Now imagine downscaling the video to far less quality to hide artefacts.

I've seen that, and it's actually pretty damn hilarious 😂

But on a serious note, it would be a little more difficult to get his real voice to match up with a script. Much easier to make a funny animation using his face and dub another person's voice over it.

Like have you seen the RBG fake where she says "my most fervent wish is to hear Donald J Trump say fuck?" It's her real face and voice, but it's all janky and robotic, so you can absolutely tell that it's fake.

A few years from now though, yeah it will be impossible to for a human to detect a fake just by watching. It's gonna get creepy.

Like video Deep Fakes, there is a program that can. Change your voice as well

Tell me you can see or hear that this is a deep fake.

Yes, the audio that is simulated has some "chunky" sounds to it. It's really, really good though. But you can hear a slight warble to it, and the inflections on words sounds wrong, like he is blankly reading a book out loud or something.

The footage where he is sitting in front of the microphone is real, and the tone of his speech matches the words he is saying. It looks natural because it is.

But yes, it's extremely realistic and with just a little more advancement and some talented deep-fake artists, it will be completely impossible to tell the difference very soon.

Holy fuck. First off I needed the laugh, secondly look how good the tech is. A little bit of downsample fuzziness and nobody can even tell.

I couldn't believe that wasn't actually Tom Cruise!

That was Trump's voice. Can they deep-fake a voice?

You could impersonate very closely. But I do think his announcement was real.

You nailed it. Well done, pede. Can you also inspect the go home video from yesterday? I believe that is also fake. He seemed to disappear around the time of the march.

Ok. Also the same weird stuff was seen in older videos. Including for Biden. This was for the one where he cancelled his public appearance and then did it online.

This makes me wonder why they didn't deep fake all of Biden's basement speeches. Would've been better than the real thing.

The deepfake program users have is great with enough render time, what they have access to is so much more advanced. They have access to computers that will outrender a 3080 by a fucktonne

AGREED.
