Accuracy of Deepfake Detection Technologies and Differentiating Between Harmful Deepfakes and Legitimate Political Satire or Memes
議員は、政府の現在のディープフェイク検出技術の精度、有害なディープフェイクと合法的な政治風刺の区別方法、および誤判定への対応について質問している。政府は、技術が継続的に更新されており、精度は公開されていないと対応し、『虚偽情報対策法』に基づいて有害コンテンツに対応することを強調し、風刺は違法を構成しないと述べている。政府は国際的経験に注視し、選挙セキュリティをさらに保障する必要があるかどうかを検討している。コア争点は、技術の透明性と言論の自由のバランスにある。
重要なポイント
- • Deepfake detection tools constantly updated
- • Satire is not automatically unlawful
- • Misidentification can be appealed in court
技術機密を保守し、法律に従って偽情報を打撃します
技術精度と誤判定リスクに注視します
AI偽情報の規制を強化します

29 Ms He Ting Ru asked the Minister for Digital Development and Information (a) what is the current accuracy rate of the Government’s deepfake detection technologies for AI-generated content; (b) how will the Government differentiate between harmful deepfakes and legitimate political satire or memes using similar technologies; and (c) what happens if videos are wrongly identified as deepfakes.
Mrs Josephine Teo : There are a variety of tools and techniques available to the Government to detect, identify and assess manipulated content, including artificial intelligence (AI)-generated content such as deepfakes. These may be sourced commercially, developed in-house or in partnership with researchers such as those at the Centre for Advanced Technologies in Online Safety. We do not publish their accuracy levels as our tools are constantly being updated to keep up with technology. It is also not in the public interest to reveal the full extent of capabilities as malicious actors may exploit it.
The Government can take action against online falsehoods when certain thresholds are met, including falsehoods generated with the help of AI. Action may be taken under the Protection from Online Falsehoods and Manipulation Act (POFMA) if such content is false and against the public interest. Satire or parody do not by themselves meet the criteria for POFMA action, unless they contain falsehoods that harm public interest. Individuals who disagree with POFMA directions issued to them, including those for deepfake content, can file an appeal in court.
Many countries have recognised the need to mitigate the harms and risks from AI use and application, including the malicious use of deepfakes. Some countries have already put in place safeguards, especially during elections, in order to protect the integrity of the electoral process. We are studying if further safeguards are required and will provide an update when ready.
