                                   Deepfake technology and politics

          Not  a  long  time  from  now,  it  wasn’t  an       his  usual  movements  without  much
          easy  mission  to  design  a  fake  video  or        difference, but in fact the matter is that this

          picture  as  it  took  a  long  time  and  a  big    person  is  not  the  person  behind  this
          effort  and  needed  a  high  technology  and        artificial  video,  but  rather  that  deepfake

          advanced  programs.  But  now,  in  the              technology  has  changed  face  expressions
          modern world we can even go further than             of the one in the main video and make it

          all  these  in  only  a  press  of  a  button  and   exactly  the  same  as  a  famous  wanted
          without any professional skills, in addition         person,  so  that  he  can  broadcast  or

          and  the  most  complicated  one  is                 politician or a decision maker but actually

          “DeepFake” technology.                               he  has  been  simulated  using  machine
                                                               learning.

          What is Deepake technology?
          It  is  a  modern  technology  that  uses            And  from  this  point  the  problem  arises,

          style of a person’s speech and movement,             social media and others have all weakened

          or what researchers call a "soft biometric           the  real  political  news  and  the  political
          signature."  This  technology  produces  a           speeches. Nowadays, many politicians are
