Artificial intelligence technology allows the face of person A to be pasted on the face of person B so that it can cause defamation. Is it difficult to trust images shared on social media because of the ever-improving techniques of forgery and manipulation? Sony this month began offering new technology that will make it harder to forge images and easier to detect.
Each image captured using the digital signature technology on this Sony camera will have its own identity. This will be kept by the original owner. If the pixels on this digital image are changed for the purpose of manipulation for example, it will change from the digital signature when it was taken. With this the authenticity of the image can be easily detected.
Sony sees this technology being used by authorities to take photos of passports and national ID cards. Sony is only providing this digital signature technology on the Alpha 7 IV camera at this time with it being expanded to other models in the future.
