DDK Pod Episode 14 – Deep Fakes: What are they really and why should we care? This month we discuss the rapidly advancing technology of Deep Fakes.  Deep Faking is an often misunderstood concept which we explain in detail.  Built on technologies like GAN, Deep Faking has hit the headlines a lot recently due to pretty convincing recreations of famous celebrities becoming more common place.  Even big entertainment studios are now using the technology to bring actors back from the dead.  But the truth is that Deep Faking has the potential to both enhance and destroy lives.  We explore where this journey is taking us as a society and what the possible future applications of the technology are.  Also covered is our pick of the IT industry news and a few recommendations for our listeners.
