Politics Talk

How are you meant to spot deepfake political content now?

Every election seems to have at least one fake image or clip going round, and I'm not convinced the usual advice (look at the hands, look at the background) works any more.

I'm a bit skeptical of the 'just check the fact-checkers' answer too, because by the time they've checked something it's had a million shares. What do people actually do in practice? Or have we just accepted that some of what we see is going to be fake?
