A history of the technology and subsequent use and abuse of deepfakes. Beginning with a little-known 1994 Photoshop demo in which a programmer digitally cloned his girlfriend, this film follows the evolution of fake imagery through internet hoaxes, celebrity porn, and the breakthrough AI technology that made it possible to generate entirely convincing people from scratch. Meet Ian Goodfellow, the creator of the AI tech behind deepfakes - as he explains how he first made AI generated images, and predicts that the computers will continue to get better at faking indefinitely. Uncover early deepfake porn communities, through messages shared with the first journalist to report on deepfakes globally. Hear from a young journalist, who speaks out about her experience of deepfake nudification and how it can happen to anyone. **Correction, Julie Yukari's name was spelt incorrectly in this video.
