South Korea invests millions to prevent deepfakes

Công LuậnCông Luận20/09/2024


Authorities recently uncovered a large network of Telegram chat rooms, often set up in schools and universities, where users shared deepfake pornographic videos created using artificial intelligence, targeting female students and staff.

The incident has sparked public outrage, prompting the South Korean president to promise tough action.

The Seoul National Police Agency said it has allocated 2.7 billion won (about $2 million) per year through 2027 to develop deep learning technology to detect fake content, such as deepfakes and fake voices. It will also spend hundreds of thousands of dollars to upgrade existing software to monitor deepfakes and other AI-generated videos.

South Korea has long struggled with online sexual violence, but the number of cases has increased 11-fold this year compared to 2018. However, prosecution rates remain low. From 2021 to July this year, 793 deepfake-related crimes were reported, but only 16 people were arrested and prosecuted.

President Yoon Suk Yeol said the deepfake issue has caused great concern, especially among women, and is a serious crime that affects social harmony. He has asked relevant ministries to take drastic action.

In late August, 84 women's organizations issued a joint statement, arguing that the root cause of the deepfake crisis is "gender discrimination" and that the solution to the problem is gender equality.
