Space & Innovation Manipulated Video and Audio Will Make Future Fake News Even More Believable New technologies suggest that it's just a matter of time before we're truly in a world of special effects, and distrustful of everything we see and hear.

In their paper about the photo-realistic reenactment technology, the researchers don't mention fake news. In fact, their work aims to detect edits in videos to establish their credibility. They believe that the ability to faithfully reconstruct facial movements in real time will allow for "on-the-fly dubbing" of translated video clips to make the speaker's lips match their words. Another revolutionary technology from Adobe Creative Cloud will soon allow video producers to easily and accurately replace someone's dialogue with whatever they want the person to say. In this sneak peek video from Adobe Max 2016, developer Zeyu Jin puts brand new words into comic Keegan-Michael Key's mouth by simply entering them into a computer. (He also notes that his team is working hard to make the application of this tech detectable.)
