Insurance Fraud: Making Fake Photos with AI

In this video, I make a deepfake "pre-loss" condition photo using #adobe #photoshop and their #generativeai technology.

The insurance industry has seen a dramatic rise of fraudulent insurance claims based upon #shallowfake and #deepfake photos.

These photos are being used to modify pictures, for example, to make a vehicle look more damaged than it actually was in a photo before submitting it to the #insurancecompany.

These photos can look extremely realistic and pose a serious problem for an #insuranceadjuster trying to assess a claim. It also creates concerns for #attorneys and litigation.

Toward the end of the video, I explain how #digitalforensics is addressing these challenges.
