Part 3: Where to Now?

Like all inventions, the development of deepfakes is just the beginning. Now that you know how deepfakes work, where can you take that knowledge and what can you do with it? You might be surprised at how flexible the techniques can be.

In this part, we’ll examine some hypothetical projects and how techniques in deepfakes could be used to make them easier, as well as solving complicated issues that might otherwise stump the average developer (you’re not one of those – after all, you bought this book!). Then, we’ll ask the ultimate question: what will the future bring? We’ll try to answer it by looking at where generative AI might go in the near future, including looking at the limitations and challenges that these AI technologies must overcome.

This part comprises the following chapters:

• Chapter 8, Applying the Lessons of Deepfakes
• Chapter 9, The Future of Generative AI
