Chapter 202: Deepfakes - Again!

"A what now?" Matthew chimed.

"A deepfake." I replied.

"I heard you the first time but what is it?" he said.

"Enough of that cryptic talk kid. What is really happening? Isn't that Rod speaking in that broadcast? Does the word 'fake' in deepfake means that it's a fake person in that podium right now?" Oscar asked.

"Somewhat. Deepfakes are synthetic media in which a person's image from a video or something similar is replaced with someone else's. Remember the ones I showed you before with the US President? Where they placed his face on someone else's to slander him?" I said.
