    • Abstract:
      The article focuses on the development of open source software capable of creating realistic high definition fake video clips. It states the software utilizes artificial intelligence which initially breaks down real video into component layers to create a basic editable structure that false elements can be inserted and then compares new video sequence frames from existing frames. It mentions the videos have been used as a virtual defense against possession of child pornography.
