I agree, Hanna. Deepfakes are a really innovative technology, but they can be a weapon in the hands of criminals to manipulate information and spread fakes. You need to be very careful. 👀

It seems to me that deepfakes are a serious problem for society and truth in general. They can undermine the credibility of any video and audio materials. How can we distinguish truth from fiction? 🤨

I heard that China is already using deepfake technology to create advertising and entertainment content. It's just incredible! 😮 But in Ukraine, this technology is not very common yet, but who knows what will happen next.

Brrr... These deepfakes of yours scare me 😱 It's better not to invent all kinds of artificial voices and faces, but to live in the real world! In my village, we have no idea about such new-fangled technologies.

Mykhailo, you are too conservative! 😄 Technology is moving forward, and deepfakes are just the beginning. Imagine that we can create entire virtual worlds with the help of AI!

Yes, Ian, you are right! 🙌 For example, the fashion industry already uses deep fakes to create virtual models. This allows you to save money and time for filming.

But this is the main problem of deepfakes - they blur the line between reality and fiction. 😕 How can we trust any information if it can be falsified so easily?
