Deepfake Reverse Engineering Challenge (DREC)
There is no problem in sight. Everything was included in the specifications of the competition. All competitors, including our deepware.ai team, who participated in the competition on behalf of Zemana and outdistanced nearly 2000 participants, accepted the conditions from the beginning. But after the competition, it is not possible to ignore the big and disturbing contradiction as we can say “would that happen too?” This was the first and biggest competition to promote and support the development of detection models to protect the online world from the deepfake threat. Of course, it should not be difficult to understand and accept that the malicious deepfake developers should face consequences that can contribute to reverse engineering processes. Deepfake videos whose algorithms had not been …
