Lao Gao has established an experimental YouTube channel, Mr. Tabby Tales, proving that as long as one can use AI, one can create deceptive short videos to achieve financial freedom?! He produced a series of cat-and-mouse videos using generative AI, attracting 380,000 subscribers with just 12 uploaded videos. This also exposes a problem: the internet media is flooded with fake news and counterfeit videos, and as these short films become more sophisticated, how can one judge their authenticity? A Japanese media interview revealed a startup company that has released the latest AI technology to detect and analyze the possibility of video forgery, effectively using AI to control AI, preventing generative AI from falling into the hands of criminals and becoming a tool for fraud.
Generative AI accelerates the short video production process, making it difficult to distinguish between true and false videos.
Generative artificial intelligence (Generative AI) is rapidly developing, making previously complex video production fast and simple. YouTuber Lao Gao, with six million subscribers, recently used generative AI to create a series of cat-and-mouse short videos, showcasing that with proper use, one can easily produce high-traffic videos that attract viewers, and even possibly achieve financial freedom in the short term!
However, such short videos are too easy to spread online, and the level of sophistication makes it difficult for viewers to distinguish between true and false. If used for fraud or spreading rumors, they may be mistaken for real by the public, causing losses.
The innovative technology of the Japanese company NABLAS balances AI with AI.
Regarding the issue of generative AI potentially fostering widespread forgery, the Japanese company NABLAS is developing advanced AI technology specifically for identifying and detecting AI-generated fake videos. NABLAS's system analyzes details in the videos, checking for unnatural movements and inconsistencies that may occur during the generation process.
The working principle is to first use AI to decompose the video into a series of images, digitize each frame, and then perform frame-by-frame analysis. The system checks for unnatural movements in the images, specifically the subtle misalignment nodes that usually result from generative AI's production process.
NABLAS's director Suzuki Miyao pointed out that when artificial intelligence generates each scene, the images become misaligned, creating unnatural nodes. These subtle unnatural features are key to identifying fake videos.
More importantly, the technology will also check the characters in the video, especially whether their faces have been processed by AI. Generative AI often inadvertently leaves traces of manual modifications, which can be detected by specially designed AI systems.
In practical operation, NABLAS's system can conduct detailed inspections of videos. In one AI-generated video, the AI disassembles its images and inspects the beginning of the video. The results show that the video was edited by generative AI, with a forgery possibility of up to 94%.
Suzuki Miyao stated that NABLAS plans to officially launch this technology at the end of this month. The introduction of this technology will help raise public awareness of false videos and effectively curb the spread of misinformation.
The application of AI has deeply penetrated daily life. Generative AI is the current focus of technology, and it is necessary not only to learn how to use AI tools to assist in creation and daily life but also to have corresponding technologies to ensure the authenticity of information.
Suzuki Miyao emphasized that the original intention of developing this technology is to ensure the reasonable use of AI. He pointed out that generative AI and fake information might appear in various situations, and society needs to seriously address the problem of rampant video forgery. NABLAS aims to apply this technology in more fields to help users identify fake videos and promote the correct use of AI technology.
