Synthetic and Manipulated Media

Risk Indicators
Generative images Hands, text on signs, lighting inconsistencies — weak heuristics; use detector tools cautiously
Face swaps / deepfakes Temporal glitches, unnatural blinking — confirm with specialist tools and source tracing
Cheapfakes Mislabeled real footage from another event — often caught by reverse search

Disclosure

Detector scores are probabilistic. Pair with provenance (original upload chain) whenever possible. For user-facing outputs, apply ITI inferred / AI-generated transparency rules.
