Are you able to acknowledge these Deepfakes? 99.9% can’t, Biometrief firm claims

Deeppakes are alarming to recognize. So difficult that today only 0.1% of people can identify them.

According to iProov, this is a British biometric authentication company. The company tested the publicity skills of the public by showing 2,000 British and US consumers a collection of real and synthetic content.

Unfortunately, the up -and -coming SLCHEN failed in their investigation.

A sad 99.9% of them could not distinguish between Real and Deepfake. Do you think you can do it better, Sherlock? You are not the only one.

In the IPROOV study, over 60% of the participants were confident in their AI recognition skills – regardless of the accuracy of their assumptions. Do you still trust your nose digital information? Well, you can test it yourself in a Deepfake quiz that was published in addition to the study results.

The quiz arrives in the middle of an increase in headline incentive attacks.

In January, for example, the tabloids were enthusiastic about one of one that a French woman named Anne.

She moved the fraudsters from € 830,000 after using Deepfakes to pose as a Brad Pitt with the actor's de -paws. The fraudsters also sent their film material for a TV anchor with AI-generated television, in which the “exclusive relationship of the Hollywood star with a special person … which is called Anne”.

The poor Anne was mocked for her naivety, but it is far from falling in love with a deep pap.

Deepfakes on the advance

According to the ID verification company Onfido, a Deepfake attack occurred every five minutes last year.

The content is often armed due to fraud. A recently carried out study estimated that AI drives almost half (43%) of all attempts at fraud.

Andrew Bud, the founder and CEO of IPROOV, attributes the escalation to three converging trends:

  1. The rapid development of AI and its ability to produce realistic depth factions
  2. The growth of CAAS networks (crime-a-service) that offer cheaper access to demanding, specially built attack technologies
  3. The susceptibility of traditional ID review practices

Bud also pointed to the lower entry barriers in Deepfakes. The attackers have developed from simple “cheap fakes” to powerful tools that create convincing synthetic media within minutes.

“Deeppacing is processed,” Bud told TNW by e -mail. “The tools for creating Deepfake content are widely accessible, very affordable and do not achieve results for the human eye. It creates a perfect storm of cybercrime, since most organizations have no adequate defenses to counteract these attacks.

“Conventional solutions and manual processes such as video identification simply cannot keep up. Organizations must take on scientifically based biometric systems in combination with AI-driven defense mechanisms that can recognize these attacks, develop and prevent them. “

AI will focus on the TNW Conference, which will take place in Amsterdam on June 19 to 20. Tickets for the event are now on sale. Use the Code TnwxMedia2025 on the check-out to get a 30% discount on the price.
