À propos de cet audio
Can you spot a deepfake? No, really—can you?
In this episode of Byte of Truth, host Sébastien Deschamps breaks down a fascinating new study that shows how simple digital literacy tools—like tips, visuals, and even games—can significantly boost our ability to detect AI-generated fakes. From Balenciaga Popes to phantom fingers, we explore the strange world of synthetic media and how to stay one step ahead of the algorithm.
You’ll learn:
Why deepfakes are more dangerous (and accessible) than ever
What kinds of training actually help people spot them
Which techniques don’t work (and why)
How to build digital resilience—without becoming overly skeptical
A must-listen for anyone interested in tech, trust, and the weird future of visual truth online.
