Deepfake refers to the artificial intelligence technology that splices individual sounds, facial expressions, and body movements into false content with the help of neural network technology.It makes it possible to tamper with or generate highly realistic audio and video contents and make it difficult to identify, which observers fail to distinguish with the naked eye.Therefore, the abuse of deepfake technology will accelerate human beings into the "post-truth era", which will cause a series of social risks, endangering personal legitimate rights and interests, social and public security, and even national security.This paper provides an overview of the main algorithm model-Autoencoder and Generative Adversarial Network-of deepfake, and then points out the existing risks and legal regulation of deepfake technology.
