A New Social Risk Assessment Method for Deepfake Technology
As a new field of commercial application of artificial intelligence,deep synthesis is attracting more and more public attention.Deepfake technology is a destructive application of deep synthesis,which poses a great threat to national security,social security,and citizens'personal security.Its further development and evolution have been highly valued by governments,companies,and individuals in China,Europe and the United States.Given the lack of quantitative assessment methods and regulation system of a social risk of deep-fake technology,this paper,based on the comprehensive analytic hierarchy process and fuzzy comprehensive evaluation,develops a new social risk assessment method to evaluate the social risk of deepfake technology.According to the evaluation results,this paper further puts forward the view that China's deepfake technology is currently in the stage of"medium and high"social risk and then reasonably infers that the main problem with China's Deepfake technology at present lies in:(1)immature theory and technology,(2)unsound le-gal supervision and(3)loopholes in products and services.The evaluation index system established in this paper can provide support for the application of deepfake technology and further social risk research in China,and the suggestions on regulating the social risk of deep-fake technology can provide reference for the decision-making of relevant departments.
