Text for my video

My research essay is about Fake news

Fake videos and images are one of the important parts of fake news

First, let’s watch this video

We can see President Biden falling asleep during a TV interview This video was widely shared on social media in 2020

You may be wondering is this real?

Actually the reaction of the interviewer on the left is real but someone replaced the man on the right with a picture of president Biden

We can conclude this kind of fake news with

Some media create fake news with

In 2000 and 10, A Georgian media reported that the Russian tanks and soldiers have invaded Georgia.

and this fake news caused panic in the society Some people even died of heart attack because of fear.

But in fact the photos reported in the media were taken by 2008, and Russian army did not invade Georgia in 2010. actually The media mentioned that the invasion might happen in the future before the report, but this sentence did not attract attention

Now let's look at these four pictures

Do these people look normal or even familiar?

in fact， these people in the pictures are not existing in the world, all of the pictures are made by artificial intelligence, which called AI technology

and you can go to this website made by Philip Wang and check it out by yourself.

So people need to be aware that some of the pictures on the Internet may be fake, and they are probably made by AI

After those so many examples, some people may feel confident and think they have judgment and will not be cheated by fake news.

But here is an interesting research made by Stanford university shows that most people can’t correctly judge the news is real or fake

They found 10 PHD.historians， 25 undergraduate students from Stanford university and 10 trained Internet fact checkers to spot the social and political news on media platforms

And the result is only the trained internet fact checkers can correctly recognize the real news. most historians and students were cheated by fake news

From the research before we knew that Fake news is almost unavoidable in our daily life .

But we can improve our judgment for information.

And here is some tips for spotting fakes news

If you feel panic, anger or anxiety, you should pay attention to the truth of the news

like when you see the words like it is reported that….or according to relevant media reports…. You need to be doubtful of the truth

That's the end of my video. Thanks for watching
