The term "deepfake" is derived from the combination of "deep learning" and "fake." Deepfake technology uses deep neural networks, particularly generative adversarial networks (GANs), to generate realistic-looking content.

In the context of deepfakes, the generator creates fake content, such as a video of a person saying or doing something they never did, while the discriminator tries to distinguish between real and fake content. Deepfakes can be created for various purposes, including entertainment, satire, or malicious activities. While they have potential positive applications, such as in the film industry for special e
