DeepFakes and AI/ML in Cyber Security
In this chapter, we will bring to light some of the newer innovations in the industry that surround artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) uses that are applicable in cyber security and potentially cyber warfare. While time could be spent specifically detailing exactly how to build and deploy your own AI/ML-based DeepFakes, that is not what this chapter is about. In all honesty, that is a dangerous gambit. These tools and techniques have broad implications and could impact the fabric of truth around a variety of important topic areas. Instead of specific "how to" sections, we will discuss:
- What are DeepFakes and where are they being noted today?
- How can AI/ML be used in these applications to weaponize facts, video, sound, and even biometrics?
- What broad impacts are possible thanks to these innovations and their coupling to massively powerful cloud computing resources?
First, let's...
