A Critical Analysis of Technology, Society, and Moral Responsibility
Explore the ProjectThe ethical issues raised by deepfake technology are explored in our project, which looks at how artificial intelligence technology could be used to generate extremely realistic images and videos that were entirely invented by the technology. With the rise of this technology, the world now grapples with significant ethical concerns about truth, consent, and accountability in the digital era.
