Matt Groh and his colleagues at Northwestern University came up with an online test to see how skilled consumers are at spotting deepfakes. The results suggest people are getting better at deciphering real versus fake.
AI-generated deepfakes are everywhere on social media. Now, you can take a test developed by Northwestern University to see how well you spot them.
Marketplace’s Nova Safo took the test, sifting through a bunch of real and fake images. He got five out of six right, which is the average in a study Northwestern conducted. Lead researcher Matt Groh also helped develop a litmus test, a series of things to look for to spot deepfakes.
