Synthetic Identity, Part 2: Deepfake Detection
In this episode, Katherine Forrest and Scott Caravello return to their discussion of interactive deepfakes, highlighting state-of-the-art detection tools and techniques. From research frameworks such as the “GOTCHA” challenge and “active probing” via corneal reflections to commercial tools that can be integrated into popular video conferencing apps, they debrief the evolving tech landscape for spotting deepfakes.
The White House’s Newest Executive Order on AI: Challenging State AI Regulation
In this episode, Katherine Forrest and Scott Caravello unpack the White House’s December 11 Executive Order on AI regulation—and how it might impact today’s patchwork of state-level rules. They cover three major levers in the Executive Order: a new DOJ Litigation Task Force to challenge state laws; eligibility for broadband funding tied to a state’s AI regulatory landscape; and potential preemption through new FCC disclosure standards and under the FTC’s Section 5 authority. Along the way, they demystify preemption and the Dormant Commerce Clause. Amid lighthearted debates over proper pronunciation—and what may or may not have been covered in their 1L Constitutional Law courses—our hosts let listeners know what to watch for as courts, agencies, and Congress gear up for potential challenges to state AI laws.
Synthetic Identity: Navigating the New Deepfake Frontier
In this episode, Katherine Forrest and Scott Caravello examine how deepfakes have evolved from static clips to adaptive, real-time impersonation driven by identity engines and behavioral replication. They explain why sensor-consistent forensics are being spoofed, the implications of the zero-trust evidence era for courts and companies, and how regulators and insurers are responding—plus concrete steps on provenance controls and incident response.
