Norton Unveils Deepfake Detector for YouTube Videos
Published on 8.2.25
Norton has developed an AI-powered tool to detect deepfake videos on YouTube, providing "an added layer of contextual protection" by spotting inconsistencies in people's physical features. The tool is currently available in Norton 360 mobile products in the US, UK, Australia, and New Zealand for Android and iOS devices, with desktop support coming soon. It can be tested by uploading YouTube links to receive real-time guidance on video authenticity. The tool aims to combat deepfake scams, such as the infamous "Elon Musk investment scam", where AI-generated videos are used to deceive investors.
