Do you believe everything you see online? When you see photos and videos of someone, are you sure it’s them?

It may look like them. It may sound like them. But… be a little careful. The image could be generated by artificial intelligence (AI).  

What is AI?

Artificial intelligence is a kind of machine learning. The machine — a computer — learns to create something realistic based on examples it finds on the Internet. For instance, it might create a realistic photo of a person. Or it could re-create someone’s voice.
