YouTube Is Working on Tools to Detect AI-Generated Faces and Music

As someone who has spent countless hours scrolling through YouTube, I can’t help but feel a sense of relief and intrigue at the news of their new AI tools. As a content creator myself, I’ve seen the rise of deepfakes and synthetic media, and it’s been a rollercoaster ride. From Drake and The Weeknd collaborations that never happened to my own face on a cat meme, it seems like anything can happen online!


YouTube is actively working on identifying AI-produced videos uploaded to their platform, as they have recently disclosed the creation of two innovative AI tools. One of these tools is designed to recognize AI-created music, while the other focuses on detecting AI-made facial imagery
