Deepfake technology can now turn still images into realistic videos. The hosts show the Mona Lisa rapping, then a fake video of Obama saying a racial slur he never said, illustrating how easily false media spreads and damages reputations.

You see deepfakes? There's videos where you'll see the Mona Lisa and then they're like, watch this, and they push a button and all of a sudden the Mona Lisa starts turning her head and she starts rapping like Notorious B.I.G. and it looks like the mouth is like in sync with the lyrics and the thing looks real. It's like they can take an image and they can turn it into a video.
I think someone made one of these things to show how amazing it is. They made Obama— I think he said the N-word or something like crazy, like not cool. And they're like, he said that. Isn't that amazing? Obviously he didn't. This is where it's going to get dangerous.
