Artificial intelligence and machine learning help us in countless ways.
Robots like Alexa and Cortana can read the news at the prompt;
The Tesla Model S can be parked in your garage.
However, like any emerging technology designed to help humanity, it is not uncommon for criminals and hackers to abuse innovation and cause great harm.
The latest bug?
They are called deepfakes and they spread like wildfire.
The term is a combination of \"deep learning\" and \"false --
Deepfakes relies on artificial intelligence, machine learning.
Programmers use existing videos and images of celebrities, public figures, or anyone they know to superimpose source images into pornographic films.

\"It\'s very dangerous for a celebrity because the technology is very good and almost all viewers will think that the video they are watching is real, and attribute any emotion they feel to the Emmy\'s Lou Denig.
The nominated Hollywood studio executive told Fox News.
Artificial intelligence expert Alex Nachlas said that deepfakes is not difficult to program and the source code is provided free of charge.
Recently, sites like Reddit and Twitter have banned them.
There is usually a neural network that scans hundreds or thousands of source images, says Nachlas.
Moreover, he said that due to the enhancement of computing power, there is now a possibility of deep fraud.
Pavel Cherkashin, an AI expert, said: \"Consumer apps will inevitably appear on Apple stores and Google Play in the near future, providing video modifications through neural networks, for the management partner of General GVA Capital.
In fact, there is already software that allows people to \"swap\" faces on videos.
Hackers use pornography as a bait for online scams that \"steal your data and money,\" Darren Campo, a part-time professor at New York University at Stern Business School, it is said that deepfakes can even be created from some Instagram stories.
Eventually, he said they would \"fake it completely\"
Create the whole body of an actor or predecessor for an adult film.
However, the technology behind fakes can also be used for less bad purposes.
Nachlas says the technology is helping Hollywood movies,
Producers reproduce classic scenes in the film to create permission long-
Dead stars, even as a way to improve amateur video.
The technology can also be used to help people deal with the loss of loved ones.
Joshua Watson, who runs technology firm IronRock Solutions, told Fox News that deepfakes proves that artificial intelligence is growing rapidly even if the concept is currently being abused.

For now, the ban on deep fakes is the only means, especially as a means of retaliation.
And we may start to hear new regulations and laws.
Hopefully, before this happens, programmers will find positive uses for AI and machine learning.
