Application: Defensive deepfake for detecting live deepfaked audio and video (Patent ID: US20240089371A1)
The patent filed by Bank of America Corp. describes a defensive deepfake computer program that records audio files of a target individual, analyzes them to create a voice baseline, creates deepfake voices, and stores them in a database. The program then compares incoming phone calls with the voice baseline and deepfake voices in real-time to detect illegitimate calls, informing the recipient and terminating the call if necessary. Additionally, the program can be used to analyze videoconferences and voicemails for legitimacy, with the ability to inform the system administrator and terminate the communication if deemed illegitimate.
The defensive deepfake computer program product includes features such as refining the voice baseline and deepfake voices, requesting responses from system administrators, displaying the target individual's name on caller ID, and encrypting the database. The program can also be used to analyze videoconferences and voicemails, with the ability to compare audiovisual representations, inform recipients of illegitimate communications, and terminate them.
