The Next Great ThingJeff McGregor, CEO, Truepic - Authenticating what’s real in a deepfake, synthetic worldBefore the decade is out, over 90% of all the content on the internet will be artificially generated.

Separating fact from fiction will soon become nearly impossible, and, left unchecked, the proliferation of fake and manipulated digital content will lead to the dangerous erosion of trust and transparency in institutions, services, relationships, and society. But Jeff McGregor sees a more optimistic future. As...
