THAT ALLOW PEOPLE TO ESSENTIALLY USE SOMEONE'S FACE INTO VIDEO

THAT THEY HAVE NOT FILMED.

SOMETIMES THAT VIDEO CAN BE SEXUAL AND EXPLICIT IN NATURE.

I DON'T WANT TO GIVE THE NAME OF THIS TECHNOLOGY AND I DO NOT

WISH TO DRAW PEOPLE TO IT, BUT I DO WANT TO LET PEOPLE KNOW ABOUT

HOW MUCH THIS IS ADVANCED TO THE POINT WHERE THE VIDEO LOOKS

INCREDIBLY REAL AND IT IS DIFFICULT TO TELL WHETHER

OR NOT IT IS FAKE.

ACCORDING TO MOTHERBOARD THAT HAS DONE A GREAT JOB REPORTING

ON

THIS:

THIS TECHNOLOGY ESSENTIALLY RELIES ON VIDEO, PHOTOS, STUFF

THAT YOU POST ON SOCIAL MEDIA ON A REGULAR BASIS AND YOU FEED

THAT INFORMATION OR THAT DATA THROUGH THE TECHNOLOGY AND THEN

THE SYSTEM CAN'T ESSENTIALLY LEARN THE PERSON'S FACIAL

MOVEMENTS, THINGS LIKE THAT AND THEN THEY JUST PUT INTO PORN.

INNOCENT PERSON, NEVER TAKEN A NAKED PICTURE IN HIS OR HER

LIFE, PORN.

THIS WAS NOT IN THE ARTICLES.

THE FIRST LAYER IS YOU DO IT TO CELEBRITIES DOTS LEAST

SURPRISING THING IN THE WORLD, AND WE ARE NOT UNAWARE THAT YOU

CAN LOOK IT UP, SECOND THING, AS I WAS READING THE FIRST ARTICLE

FOR MOTHERBOARD I WAS LIKE THEY ARE GOING TO DO IT TO PEOPLE IN

THEIR OWN LIVES AND OF COURSE THEY ARE DOING ITS PEOPLE IN

THEIR OWN LIVES, JUST GRABBING PICTURES FROM INSTAGRAM OR OTHER

PLACES AND USING THIS TECHNOLOGY TO CREATE PORN WITH SOMEONE THEY

KNOW NOW WHAT IS NOT IN ARTICLES IS I JUST REALIZED AS YOU WERE

TALKING, THEY CAN THEN TAKE THEIR OWN PICTURE, PUT INTO THE

GUY IF IT'S GOING IN THAT DIRECTION AND THEN ALL OF A

SUDDEN THEY HAVE A VIDEO OF THEMSELVES HAVING SEX WITH THIS

PERSON AND IT MIGHT BE A PERSON YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW THAT MIGHT

BE A CREEPER THAT YOU MET ONCE OR AT A BAR OR WHEREVER, AT A

CONFERENCE.

ANYBODY CAN DO IT NOW AND YOU DO NOT NEED A COMPUTER BACKGROUND.

THIS HAS HUGE IMPLICATIONS AND THAT IS WHY WE'RE

DISCUSSING IT HERE TODAY.

EXACTLY.

THE REASON WHY HAS IMPLICATIONS IS BECAUSE OVER THE LAST MONTH

THAT TECHNOLOGY HAS IMPROVED SO MUCH THAT IT LOOKS INCREASINGLY

CONVINCING AND SO HOW ARE PEOPLE GOING TO BE ABLE TO DECIDE

WHETHER OR NOT A PORNOGRAPHIC VIDEO FEATURING A SPECIFIC

PERSON, WHETHER IT IS THIS LIBERTY OR A PRIVATE

CITIZEN IS REAL OR FAKE AND IT COULD HAVE REAL

RAMIFICATIONS TOWARD PEOPLE'S LIVES.

THEIR EMPLOYERS YOU MIGHT SEE THIS VIDEO OR COME ACROSS IT AND

DECIDE I AM NOT GOING TO HIRE THIS PERSON BECAUSE OF HIS OR

HER PAST AND LET'S KEEP IT REAL, THIS IS MOSTLY GOING TO

NEGATIVELY IMPACT WOMEN AND RIGHT NOW, I FEEL LIKE ONE OF

THE BIGGEST ISSUES IN AMERICA IS THE INABILITY TO

DIFFERENTIATE BETWEEN REAL NEWS AND PROPAGANDA, FAKE NEWS,

COMPLETELY FABRICATED NEWS ARTICLES.

IF WE ARE HAVING A HARD TIME DOING THAT, WHO IS TO SAY

AMERICANS OR PEOPLE IN GENERAL, NOT JUST AMERICANS WOULDN'T

HAVE A DIFFICULT TIME FIGURING OUT WHETHER OR NOT

PORNOGRAPHIC MATERIAL IS REAL OR FAKE.

YOU ARE HEARING THE STORY AND YOU MIGHT HAVE READ THE ARTICLES

AND WE WILL PUT THE LINKS DOWN BELOW, BUT THE PERSON WATCHING

IT WILL NOT HAVE GOTTEN THE BACKGROUND AND BY THE WAY,

ANOTHER THING THAT EMPLOYERS MIGHT DO IS I DON'T WANT TO

TAKE CHANCES.

IT MIGHT OR MIGHT NOT BE TRUE BUT I AM NOT TAKING ANY

CHANCES SO THEN YOU JUST RUINED TO THAT PERSON'S LIFE.

MAYBE THAT IS AN EXTREME EXAMPLE AND NOT EVERYBODY'S LIFE IS

GOING TO BE RUINED BUT THERE IS ALSO THE THING THAT IT IS

DEEPLY DISTURBING FOR PEOPLE.

THERE'S A WHOLE RANGE OF HOW PEOPLE CAN REACT TO IT.

I REMEMBER ALL THE WAY BACK, LOOK, IMMEDIATELY WHEN THE

INTERNET CAME OUT WHAT WAS THE FIRST THING PEOPLE DEAD?

THEY TOOK CELEBRITY HEADS AND PUT ON NEW BODIES.

THAT IS AS OLD AS TIME BUT NOW THIS IS SOPHISTICATED THAT WE'RE

GOING TO SHOW YOU A VIDEO IN A SECOND, NOT PORN, BUT I KNEW

A GUY WHO HAD TAKEN MY PICTURE AND PUT IT ONTO NAKED BODIES.

ME, I DO NOT CARE.

I HAVE THICK SKIN, HAVE AT IT, WHAT DO I CARE?

THAT IS YOUR MIND, YOUR BUSINESS, I DO NOT CARE.

DO YOU, BOO.

LITERALLY I GUESS IT.

THERE ARE A LOT OF PEOPLE WHO ARE NOT LIKE ME WHO WOULD BE

MORTIFIED, DEVASTATED BY THIS AND SO I KNOW THAT PEOPLE WHO DO

THIS KIND OF STUFF LULZ AND MEN ARE MEN AND THEY'RE GOING TO DO

THINGS AND FOR A LOT OF PEOPLE IT IS NOT LULZ YOU JUST HAVE TO

BE COGNIZANT THAT IT COULD HAVE NEGATIVE CONSEQUENCES.

I LOOKED INTO THE DISCUSSIONS THAT PEOPLE ARE HAVING, THE

PEOPLE WHO ARE USING THIS TECHNOLOGY AND THE PEOPLE

WHO LOVE THIS TECHNOLOGY.

I WAS READING CERTAIN FORMS WHERE THEY ARE TALKING

ABOUT IT, CONVERSING ABOUT IT AND YOU ARE RIGHT IN THAT

YES, IT IS GOING TO IMPACT CELEBRITIES.

THAT IS ONE THING, BUT MORE IMPORTANTLY, WHAT ABOUT

PRIVATE CITIZENS THAT THEY KNOW IN THEIR PERSONAL LIVES?

SOME OF THEM ARE SAYING THIS COULD BE USED FOR BRIBERY.

OR EXTORTION.

WE CAN GO AFTER CERTAIN PEOPLE AND TELL THEM HEY, IF YOU DO NOT

WANT THIS VIDEO OUT THERE, THIS VERY CONVINCING

PORNOGRAPHIC VIDEO, MAYBE YOU PAY UP OR DO X, Y, AND Z.

THERE IS THE ISSUE AND ALSO SOME WORRY THAT THERE COULD BE

POLITICAL RAMIFICATIONS FOR SOME POLITICIANS.

YOU KNOW WHAT?

I WANT TO TALK ABOUT THOSE IMPLICATIONS BUT AS YOU

WERE TALKING ABOUT IT I CAME TO ANOTHER CONCLUSION WHICH IS

TRUMP IS GOING TO BE THRILLED ABOUT THIS.

AND SO IS R. KELLY.

THEY CAN NOW SAY, THAT WASN'T US.

THEY AI-ED THAT THING.

THAT IS ANOTHER POTENTIAL NEGATIVE OUTCOME OF THIS.

THEY CAN DENY THE AUTHENTICITY OF AN ACTUAL REAL VIDEO.

THOSE ARE HUGE IMPLICATIONS BUT LET'S SAY THE VIDEO

PERSON AND TALK A LITTLE BIT MORE ABOUT THOSE IMPLICATIONS

BECAUSE I THINK IT IS GOING TO CHANGE THE WAY WE PERCEIVE

THINGS NOT JUST ONLINE, BUT IN A LOT OF PARTS OF OUR LIVES

SO HERE'S A VIDEO OF THEM DOING IT IN REGARDS TO GEORGE BUSH.

JUST FACIAL EXPRESSIONS, JUST WATCH.

AS WE CAN SEE, WE ARE ABLE TO GENERATE A REALISTIC AND

CONVINCING REENACTMENT RESULT.

HE MOVES HIS FACE AND IT LOOKS LIKE BUSH IS MOVING

HIS FACE, TALK, ETC. AND I'M IMPRESSED THAT THEY GOT

SEBASTIAN GORKA TO PLAY THAT ROLE IN THE VIDEO.

HE LOOKED A LITTLE BIT LIKE HIM.

THE WIDER POLITICAL IMPLICATIONS.

NOW YOU DON'T KNOW ANYTHING, IF IT IS REAL OR NOT AND BY

POLITICAL, I DO NOT JUST MEAN IN THE SPIRIT POLITICS BUT FOR

SOCIETAL, CULTURAL, ETC.

WE HAVE EVIDENCE OF A CRIME.

NO, YOU DO NOT.

SOMEBODY MIGHT'VE AI-ED IT AND NOW THEY CAN DO IT IN A WAY THAT

IS

ALMOST UNDETECTABLE AND SO NOW YOU WILL NEVER KNOW AND SO

THAT HAS SO MANY IMPLICATIONS, IT IS HARD TO WRAP YOUR HEAD

AROUND IT.

I AM NOT A TECH GENIUS AT ALL BUT THERE HAS TO BE SOME

FORM OF TECHNOLOGY THAT CAN HELP PEOPLE DETERMINE THE

AUTHENTICITY OF THIS VIDEO, RIGHT?

AND I'M SURE THAT THERE MIGHT BE SOMETHING OUT THERE ALREADY

OR SOMETHING THAT IS CURRENTLY BEING DEVELOPED, BUT WHAT

WORRIES ME MORE THAN ANYTHING IS THAT IN THIS NEW AGE OF THE

TECHNOLOGICAL AND THAT ADVANCEMENTS, NOBODY REALLY

GETS TO DECIDE WHAT THE REPUTATION IS.

IT DOES NOT MATTER HOW WELL BEHAVED YOU ARE HOW GOOD OF

A PERSON YOU ARE DIE DOESN'T MATTER IF YOU'VE NEVER

TAKEN A NEW BUT ON YOUR LIFE ARE DONE PORN, IT DOESN'T

MATTER IF YOU ARE AN HONEST PERSON.

THEY CAN PUT ANYTHING OUT THERE ABOUT YOU.

SOMEONE ELSE GETS TO DECIDE WHAT YOUR REPUTATION IS AND THERE

ARE SO MANY PEOPLE WHO JUST WILL NEVER BE ABLE TO KNOW WHAT

THE TRUTH REALLY IS, AND THAT IS THE PART THAT WORRIES ME.

NOT JUST OF OUR PUBLIC FIGURES OR WHATEVER, BUT MORE

IMPORTANTLY, PRIVATE CITIZENS LIKE THE POWERLESS.

YOU KNOW, THESE HIGH SCHOOL GIRLS WHO MIGHT HAVE TO

DEAL WITH THIS KIND OF STUFF.

THAT'S WHAT WORRIES ME MORE THAN ANYTHING BECAUSE I THINK

PUBLIC FIGURES, IT IS NOT THAT YOU SIGN UP FOR IT, BUT

ONCE YOU ARE A PUBLIC FIGURE, THERE IS SOME ELEMENT OF

ABUSE THAT YOU SHOULD EXPECT TO DEAL WITH, RIGHT?

IT IS NOT RIGHT, BUT PEOPLE ARE AWARE OF IT BUT NOW DOING IT

TO PRIVATE CITIZENS IS ANOTHER LAYER AND LOOK, ONE MORE THING.

I DON'T KNOW IF IT WILL EVER HAVE POSITIVE REPERCUSSIONS AND

I IMAGINE THAT THERE WILL BE SOME POSITIVE IMPLICATIONS OF IT

AT SOME POINT BUT IN THE BEGINNING AT A MINIMUM WHO

IS GOING TO USE A?

BAD GUYS.

I AM NOT TALKING ABOUT THE PORN, I AM TALKING ABOUT, AND YOU CAN

HAVE AN OPINION THAT IS VERY JUSTIFIABLE THAT ANYONE WHO IS

DOING THIS IS A BAD GUY, BUT I AM TALKING ABOUT, IT IS NOT

LIKE LET'S TALK ABOUT IN THE POLITICAL SPHERE.

IS NOT LIKE BERNIE SANDERS IS GOING TO TAKE VIDEO OF

SOMEBODY'S FACE AND THEN PUT THEM IN A COMPROMISING

POSITION AND PRETEND IT'S A REAL.

THE GOOD GUYS ARE NEVER GOING TO DO THAT, BUT THE BAD GUYS WILL

IMMEDIATELY DO IT AND THEY WILL DO IT OVER AND OVER AND OVER

UNTIL PEOPLE CATCH ON BUT BY THE TIME THAT PEOPLE CATCH ON THEY

WILL HAVE RUINED HOWEVER MANY CAREERS.

AND ALSO, IF WE CREATE THIS ENVIRONMENT WHERE WE CAN'T TELL

WHAT'S REAL AND WHAT'S FAKE, THERE'S A SCANDAL INVOLVING

ACTUAL EVIDENCE AND PEOPLE JUST DON'T BELIEVE THE EVIDENCE

BECAUSE YOU CAN'T TELL WHAT'S REAL AND WHAT'S FAKE.

IN SOME WAYS IT WILL FIRST DAMN THE INNOCENT AND THEN AT

SOME POINT, IT WILL PROTECT THE GUILTY SO IT IS A LOSE LOSE IN

THOSE WAYS AND I KNOW IF YOU ARE A YOUNG GUY YOU ARE

THINKING IT IS NOT A LOSE LOSE, YOU ARE THRILLED ABOUT IT.

WE UNDERSTAND THAT BUT I'M JUST ASKING YOU TO THINK ABOUT

THE REPERCUSSIONS FOR THE PERSON YOU ARE DOING IT TO THE

THEY DO THINK ABOUT IT AND THEY DO NOT CARE.

I MEAN --

MAYBE THEY GET FOR THEIR PLEASURE FROM THAT, I DO NOT

KNOW BUT IT DOES HAVE CONSEQUENCES.

NOW

IT IS UNLEASHED ONTO THE WORLD.
