A London-based startup called Logically.ai recently used their tech to detect "fake news" on a QAnon site and track down the publisher. They are also working on detecting fakes surrounding the Russia/Ukraine war. A similar startup in the UK called Fabula AI was acquired by Twitter a while back but has gone quiet since, probably not going to be helped much by Musk's takeover. Hopefully this is of interest!
Alternatively, a digital certificate that someone in a photo or video can attach to the photo/video to prove it is authentic, to prove that they are legitimately depicted in the photo//video. Photos/videos without this digital cert should not be trusted. Maybe this exists in the meta data of the file or is managed via blockchain somehow.
Love this concept. Technology has to be subservient to good-faith democratic dialogue. Anything with the potential to greatly contribute to the health of that dialogue deserves significant attention.

That's kind of an arms race! As soon as a method of detection is invented and distributed, fakers will work towards subverting it.
