Live Deepfake Videos: A Growing Concern
A recent scam on YouTube has raised concerns about the authenticity of live videos. A live deepfake video of Nvidia's CEO Jensen Huang was able to rank higher than the real live stream, tricking viewers into a crypto scam.
The incident occurred during Nvidia's GTC event, where the real CEO was giving a keynote speech on legitimate channels. Meanwhile, a fake version of Huang was engaging viewers on a separate live stream, directing them to a scam.
Both live streams happened simultaneously on YouTube, with the deepfake ranking higher than the legitimate live stream.
The fake channel, named NVIDIA LIVE, likely contributed to its high ranking and believability. This incident highlights the need for caution when watching live videos online.
Author's summary: Live deepfake videos can outrank real ones.
- Be cautious of live videos with suspicious or unfamiliar channels.
