YouTube has introduced a new AI tool to assist creators in detecting and managing AI-generated or altered videos that feature their facial likeness without consent. This likeness detection tool aims to combat the rising threat of deepfake videos on the platform.
How Does the Likeness Detection Tool Work?
YouTube's latest AI feature allows creators to identify videos that use their facial likeness without authorization and take appropriate actions, such as requesting the removal of these videos.
Protecting Creators from Deepfakes
By leveraging this new tool, creators can safeguard their identities and prevent the unauthorized use of their images in AI-generated content like deepfake videos. This initiative marks a significant step in combating the proliferation of misleading and harmful deepfake content on YouTube.
