This Deepfake Video of TWICE’s “FANCY” Is Making Fans Do A Double Take
본문
As technology continues to advance, more and more issues with the new technology have been arising. One of the most relevant and pressing issues today is Deepfake content.
Deepfakes are essentially the replacing of a face in a piece of media with another face. It can use motion capture technology to stay in place as well. You can kind of think of it as a more professional and advanced version of those silly apps that put your face on a dancing cat (among other things).

While Deepfaking can cause several issues already, it is becoming increasingly accessible to the common consumer, increasing Deepfake-related crimes. One of the more common crimes includes using idol group member’s faces in sexual content. There has even been an entire girl group created with this technology!

Many were horrified at how realistic the technology is. Some wondered if there was a good use for this technology as almost everything it has been used for has been either malicious or strange.
Some comments included:
