Be careful not to fall into their trap. TV news sequences from Benin’s national television, broadcast on social networks, promote various games and products. They are all false. Rather, these are manipulations used by deepfake.
The advertising videos, attributed to Benin public television, are series of reports, presented as a promotion of an application called “Play and win”. The authors emphasize certain journalists from ORTB and personalities from Benin to give credibility to this game.
Inconsistencies in manipulated videos
In fact, national television has never broadcast such videos in its newspapers. If the presenters and speakers in the reports are real images, the accompanying sounds are additions fine redirect the sequences in question. This manipulation of images using artificial intelligence called “deepfake” can be detected from several comments. First, the non-synchronization between the spoken words and the lip movements of the people on display. These ad words also deliberately lack a natural tone. In addition, the ostentatious presence of the ORTB logo of the national television is very close to the image of the news presenter which does not match his usual position on our screens.

Here are six tips to flush out a deepfake.
1- Visual inconsistencies
Deepfakes can have subtle problems in visual detail. Look for abnormalities such as eye or lip movements that don’t perfectly match speech, strange facial distortions, or inconsistencies in lighting and shadows.
2 – Facial movement
Deepfakes may have difficulty replicating the natural movement of facial muscles. Observe facial expressions and smiles: they may appear stiff or artificial.
3- Irregularities around the contours of the person
Deepfakes can leave irregularities around the contours of the face or hair. Look for blurred edges or inconsistencies between the head and the rest of the body.
4- Inconsistencies in the voice
Audio deepfakes can be misleading. Listen for variations in voice, tone and rhythm. AI-generated voices sometimes lack the depth or spontaneity of a real voice.
5- Sources
Check the credibility of the content source. If you see a suspicious video or image, seek additional information. Just a logo of a TV channel like ORTB is enough. If necessary, you must contact those concerned to be sure.
6- Digital tools
You can copy and paste the video link into the app Deepware. Online for free, the computer program often detects deepfakes.
But be careful! Deepware scanning is not 100% reliable. “Deepware aims to give an opinion on the digitized video and is not responsible for the result. As Deepware Scanner is still in beta, the results should not be taken as absolute truth or proof.”Deepware shows after this video analysis of what the result is doubtful.
If you doubt the results of Deepware, as is the case with this video, you should consult fact checking sites or ask for their help to authenticate.
