The technology has existed for a couple years but it simply wasn't as easy to do as it is now. A lot of times you can detect it if you know what you are looking for in terms of hobbyist doing it because motions are slightly jerky, or a blending will have a flaw here or there. The reality is when the technology is used for Fraud, like what is proposed here, then those who create it must be prosecuted for Fraud. While it seems scary the article points out that there is technology in the works to detect it. I think what will happen is Youtube and hosting sites will use it due to liability of posting such videos and then rogue websites who post it without detection software to stop it will be held liable as well.

And that's most likely how things will move forward.

It's not that different than 15-20 years ago when people realized you could easily and effectively Photoshop someone into a still photo (whole person, face on a body, etc). Publications, web sites and the like don't use photos like that because, in part, of liability issues or standards.

Now... the real issue here... this Gal Gadot video...
