McAfee releases the first AI-powered deepfake detection software, available for select Lenovo AI PCs, which aims to protect users from “digital deception” through AI-generated fake content.
The computer security software company McAfee has revealed a new tool aimed at helping users combat the rise in artificial intelligence deepfakes.
On Aug. 21, the company introduced its new AI Deepfake Detector software, the first of its kind. The tool is available on select Lenovo AI computers and is designed to help users detect deceptive video content with unmatched speed and accuracy.
As deepfakes — AI-altered videos designed to mislead — proliferate online, the ability to discern real from fake is becoming more crucial. According to a study conducted by McAfee in early 2024, nearly two-thirds of consumers are more worried about deepfakes now than they were just a year ago.
