Yeah, I guess they did.t singles out Grok as the culprit
however its bullshit
this is gemini answering which AI can make deepfakes. it does not even mention Grok
Deepfake technology has evolved into a range of tools, from accessible mobile apps to complex open-source software used for high-end video production.1
Depending on whether you are looking for simple face-swapping, professional avatars, or technical research, here are the primary AI tools used today:
1. Advanced & Open-Source Software
These tools require a powerful PC (typically with a high-end GPU) and offer the most realistic results.2 They are the "gold standard" for high-fidelity deepfakes.- DeepFaceLab: The most widely used software for creating realistic face swaps.3 It is responsible for the vast majority of high-quality deepfake videos found online.
- FaceSwap: A popular, user-friendly alternative to DeepFaceLab.4 It is open-source and provides a structured interface for training and generating swaps.5
- Deepfakes Web: A cloud-based version for users who don't have the hardware to run the software locally.6 It handles the heavy processing on its own servers.
2. Commercial & Business AI (Synthetic Media)
These platforms focus on "ethical deepfakes," such as creating digital twins or marketing avatars, and typically include built-in safeguards.- HeyGen: Known for creating highly realistic "talking head" avatars and video translations where the lip-syncing is perfectly matched to the new language.7
- Synthesia: A leader in corporate AI video, allowing you to turn text scripts into videos featuring "AI presenters" that look and sound like real people.8
- Resemble AI: Specializes in audio deepfakes (voice cloning), allowing users to create a digital version of a voice with just a few seconds of data.9
3. Mobile Apps (Consumer Level)
These are designed for entertainment and "light" deepfaking, usually swapping faces into existing movie clips or GIFs.10- Reface: One of the most famous apps for quickly swapping your face into viral videos or memes.11
- FaceApp: Famous for its "aging" and gender-swapping filters, which use GANs (Generative Adversarial Networks) to alter your likeness realistically.
- Wombo: Uses AI to make a single photo "sing" or lip-sync to a specific song.12
Important Ethical & Legal Note
While these tools are fascinating for creative and educational purposes, they carry significant risks.- Consent: Creating deepfakes of real people without their explicit permission is widely considered unethical and is illegal in many jurisdictions.13
- Detection: Because deepfakes are becoming harder to spot, many companies now use detection tools like Sensity AI or Reality Defender to verify the authenticity of media.14
