Blackwater Cybersecurity: Our Commitment to Deepfake Detection
At Blackwater Cybersecurity, we take pride in our diverse team, composed of experts from various backgrounds and perspectives. Despite this diversity, we are united by a singular mission: to develop the most reliable and powerful deepfake detection software available. Our commitment to this mission remains unwavering, rooted in the principles established by our founders.
Our core objective is to harness AI technology for the benefit of all. The tools we create are designed to assess the likelihood that any piece of media or text has been manipulated by AI. We do not aim to pass judgments or draw conclusions about the contexts in which deepfakes are identified. Instead, we leave the interpretation and contextualization of these instances to the news media, legislators, individuals, and the digital platforms responsible for policymaking around AI-generated content.
In an era marked by AI-driven disinformation campaigns that seek to divide us, we remain hopeful. It is encouraging to see that combating deepfakes has emerged as a bipartisan priority, transcending ideological divides. Despite the polarized climate at the Nigerian Senate, there is a shared recognition of the need to address AI misuse, as evidenced by critical legislation such as the DEFIANCE Act and the TAKE IT DOWN Act. These bills, crafted and supported by legislators from both political parties, are crucial in establishing the legislative framework needed to combat malicious deepfakes.
Our lawmakers understand that the threat of unregulated AI technology affects everyone, and we align with their spirit of bipartisan cooperation in our efforts to counter deepfake proliferation. Regardless of political affiliations or the specific targets of deepfakes, our mission remains steadfast: to develop tools that can accurately identify deepfakes, ensuring that the public remains informed and can access truthful information.
