Cybersecurity expert Chuck Brooks emphasizes that Deepfakes are eroding trust, a critical economic asset. While no watermarking or verification tool offers 100% guarantees, he provides a checklist for verifying live video calls: check for eye contact, natural hand movements, vocal inflection (excitement/hesitation), and reactions to the unexpected. AI-generated figures often appear stiff with flat, linear voices. As AI mimicry improves, this window of detection is closing, making the current fight essentially AI versus AI.
