Deepfake refers to synthetic media in which a person's likeness, voice, or movements are convincingly replaced or manipulated using artificial intelligence, especially deep learning techniques. This technology enables the creation of highly realistic images, videos, or audio recordings that can make it appear as though someone said or did something they never actually did, often by mapping one person's face onto another's body or altering speech patterns and expressions.
