Dear Joseph,
Thanks for your message. The article notes
'Deepfake doctors — artificial intelligence (AI)-generated videos mimicking medical professionals — are increasingly being spotted on social media. These faux doctors peddle everything from false medical info to dubious products, like oils to treat hair loss or supplements for endocrine disorders.'
'Anyone with a computer or smartphone can now make a deepfake' using AI. 'Diffusion models for AI imagery are open-sourced and easy to find.'
Best wishes, Neil
