It's like just the general ability for people to have the cognitive sense to work through what they're seeing and make sense of it in their eyes.
So from my students, I talk about the use of chat GPT all the time and how it leads them astray.
It really does lead them astray very frequently.
Anyway, what the researchers were interested here is, I think we all had this worry that
Deception is the problem.
You see an AI video or you see a video on your socials and it's doing something and you're like, oh, that's really scary.
And someone would invoke this video to help influence the way you feel about a policy.
Maybe it's about guns or maybe it's about vaccines or maybe it's about a million other things that we all yell at each other about, right?
So you worry about deception as the biggest problem.
So then the answer to deception is education, right?
You show people like that video that you're looking at is a fake video.
So would that change your perception?
So the way they did this is they ran a series of online studies.
They did three of them.
They had a range of participants in the hundreds.
And what they did is they would show them videos.
Some would be real and some would be deepfaked, made specifically for the study.
And the videos would be an interview with a person who is admitting to doing a crime or admitting to do a transgression against a friend or something like that.
And for some of them, they were given the warning, hey, this video is a fake video.
And for some of them, they weren't.
