McAfee, the cybersecurity specialist, has announced a new technology that utilizes artificial intelligence to assist in identifying fake voices.
The company stated that the accuracy of detecting fake voices using the new technology currently exceeds 90%, and this technology was developed by the company based on a special artificial intelligence model.
The company refers to this technology as the “Simulated Bird Project,” which was developed after the spread of the use of fake voices in fraudulent activities.
Deepfake tools and artificial intelligence models have contributed to the proliferation of fake voices, where these voices are used to facilitate fraud, deception, and spreading lies online.
This technology works by analyzing audio clips and distinguishing between authentic parts and fake parts created using artificial intelligence tools. It is also used to analyze voices accompanying video clips to verify their authenticity.
There has been significant progress in manipulating voices and videos recently due to the advancement of the tools used in their production. McAfee has observed many posts relying on these technologies on social media platforms.
Steve Grobman, the CEO of McAfee Technology, stated that it is clear that we are witnessing a very rapid shift in online criminal activities that rely on artificial intelligence to carry out various fraud operations and warned of the consequences of using deepfake in important events such as political elections.
