Northwestern University researchers have launched a new, easy-to-use platform for detecting deepfakes, which now is available to a limited number of verified journalists.
This article provides tips on defining and identifying deepfakes, understanding their scope in the current media environment, and trusting your intuition when examining the details of media for potential signs of manipulation.
Through three studies, Kellogg’s Jacob Teeny and colleagues find that generative AI is able to write messages tailored to people’s complex psychological profiles and that these messages are more persuasive than non-tailored or generic messages.
Three areas where AI can be most effective are carrying out customer research, amplifying creativity around social media and brand personality, and making advertising customization easier and more efficient.
