Bollywood Celebrities Shahid Kapoor and Kriti Sanon Speak Out on Deepfake Videos
Deepfake technology has become a growing concern in the entertainment industry, and Bollywood celebrities are not immune to its manipulations. Actors Shahid Kapoor and Kriti Sanon recently shared their thoughts on this alarming trend while promoting their upcoming film, Teri Baaton Mein Aisa Uljha Jiya.
Kriti expressed her apprehension about the situation, pointing out the numerous morphed videos that have surfaced and the rapid advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) technology. In an interview with India Today, she stated, It is concerning, and there have been several morphed videos that have come out. But at the same time, we also have AI-generated news anchors, which means that we are progressing rapidly. It’s possible that we may have an AI partner in the coming years.
Shahid Kapoor echoed her sentiments and delved deeper into the societal implications of deepfake technology. He remarked, Human beings are the problem themselves. They have caused this to happen in the world. We are shifting the blame onto AI. We are accustomed to not living in reality. We project a different version of ourselves on social media that isn’t real, and then we compare that to reality, leading to depression. That is the truth. We have already entered a simulation and are looking for an alternative reality. That is what AI represents, and it is as fundamental as a relationship. There is a difference between what is man-made and what is created by a higher power. This difference is depicted subtly in our film.
In Teri Baaton Mein Aisa Uljha Jiya, Shahid Kapoor and Kriti Sanon portray the roles of a robotic expert and a robot, respectively. With veteran actors Dharmendra and Dimple Kapadia also part of the cast, anticipation is running high for the film’s release on February 9, 2024.
The rise of deepfake technology has raised concerns about the potential misuse and manipulation of content, especially when it involves public figures. As the entertainment industry continues to navigate this challenge, the opinions of Bollywood celebrities like Shahid Kapoor and Kriti Sanon shed light on the need for awareness and caution in dealing with deepfake videos.
