What are Deep fakes and Why it can be a Big Threat in the future?

Deepfakes (a portmanteau of "deep learning" and "fake"[1]) are synthetic media[2] in which a person in an existing image or video is replaced with someone else's likeness. While the act of faking content is not new, deep fakes leverage powerful techniques from machine learning and artificial intelligence to manipulate or generate visual and audio content with a high potential to deceive.

Let me show you something to understand this technology better.

Ok. let's think about it. Where can it be used? This technology can be
used In lots of movies.

for example, if an actor is absent in a scene of a film, Director can use other actors instead of him.
Ok. I know it may be an amazing technology at first look but there are big threats too. child pornography, sexual abuse, fake news, and .... .

The worst thing is that you can not distinct lies from truth.it is very horrible. someone can easily talk with your face and your voice and steal your identity.
courts can not find out what happens too.
you can find many deep fakes videos on the internet.
they have existed now too but fortunately, they are not very usual and epidemic.
it may be possible in the future that we will never understand what happens behind scenes.

what do you think?

amazing or horrible???!!!!
