Sony, Canon and Nikon set to combat deepfakes with digital signature tech in future cameras

AI shook up the photography world in 2023, from fooling judges to win photography competitions to the proliferation of deepfakes with real-world ramifications, such as a depiction of an explosion – which didn’t happen – outside the Pentagon that caused markets to briefly dip.
