A deepfake is synthetic media generated by artificial intelligence (AI) technology. It portrays events or things that do not exist in reality. The term combines deep from AI deep-learning technology (a type of machine learning that involves multiple levels of processing) and fake because the subject of the depiction did not actually occur.
