Beyond the Branch

Columbia Engineering researchers have developed a new tool called DIVID (DIffusion-generated VIdeo Detector) to identify AI-generated videos. DIVID builds on the team's earlier work with Raidar, a tool released earlier this year that detects AI-generated text by analyzing the text itself, without requiring access to the internal mechanisms of large language models. 👉 Check out Columbia's report
Why you should care
Meta has announced they are eliminating fact-checkers, while technology to create artificial and astoundingly realistic content is surging. Our current technology is moving faster than regulations can (or should), so the onus falls on us the individual to validate, question, and understand the images, videos, and content we are consuming.
