The FAIK Files

Perry Carpenter | N2K Networks

The FAIK Files explores the mysterious and often wacky intersection of AI, technology, and humanity. From cognitive warfare to digital deception, we examine how AI is reshaping our reality through news, research, and real-world examples. Join us for a thought-provoking journey into a world where anything can be faked, truth is increasingly elusive, and human nature meets artificial intelligence head-on.

    Going Deep on Deepfakes (feat. Hany Farid)

    Welcome back to The FAIK Files! In this week's episode: We sit down with deepfake expert Hany Farid to discuss the real-world harms of synthetic media. Exploring the physics of deepfake detection and why real-time streams might be easier to defend. The dangers of using AI to "enhance" images and hallucinate hidden details. A look at solutions like C2PA, watermarking, and the pressing need for platform accountability. Check out Hany's company, Get Real Security here: https://getrealsecurity.com Learn more about C2PA at: https://contentcredentials.org Want to leave us a voicemail? Here's the magic link to do just that: ⁠⁠⁠https://sayhi.chat/FAIK⁠⁠⁠ You can also join our Discord server here: ⁠⁠⁠https://faik.to/discord⁠⁠⁠ *** NOTES AND REFERENCES  *** What Keeps Hany Farid Up at Night?: The rising harms of non-consensual intimate imagery (NCII) and child sexual abuse material (CSAM) generated by AI. Voice cloning being weaponized for individual fraud and real-time deepfakes used by state-sponsored actors. Why the specific tool (like Sora or face swap) matters less than the overall threat vector and resulting harm. Deepfake Detection - APIs vs. Physics: Hany's work at UC Berkeley and his company Get Real Security. Why detecting real-time manipulated video is actually easier than identifying well-crafted, file-based deepfakes online. How physical camera imperfections (noise) differ from the artifacts introduced by AI upsampling and diffusion models. The Danger of AI "Enhancement": Why using AI to "remove a ski mask" or enhance low-res footage is not like CSI—it's just hallucinating statistically consistent pixels. AI lacks a notion of uncertainty, leading to dangerous misidentifications and real-world harm. The "Liar's Dividend": When the flood of AI slop makes people doubt the authenticity of real, unedited evidence. Safeguards, C2PA, and Platform Responsibility: The role of watermarks and C2PA content credentials acting as "nutrition labels" for digital media. Clarifying that C2PA relies on signed credentials and a trust list, not the blockchain. The dire need for social media platforms to enforce semantic guardrails and take responsibility for the content they amplify. Find more of Hany's work by searching YouTube for his lectures on "Physics-Based Photo Forensics." *** THE BOILERPLATE *** About The FAIK Files: The FAIK Files is an offshoot project from Perry Carpenter's most recent book, FAIK: A Practical Guide to Living in a World of Deepfakes, Disinformation, and AI-Generated Deceptions.

    The Business of Scamming (feat. Mael from Infoblox)

    Welcome back to The FAIK Files! In this week's episode, we sat down with Maël Le Touz, who works as a threat researcher at Infoblox.com (a DDI security provider). We asked him about: Defining "pig butchering" and how it differs from traditional online scams. The human trafficking nightmare behind the scamming compounds in Southeast Asia. How Infoblox uses DNS security to track industrial-scale scam operations and their ties to organized crime. The rise of "Scamming as a Service" and how AI is supercharging the deception. Debunking VPN myths and practical advice on how to safely help a victim of a scam. Check out INFOBLOX here: https://www.infoblox.com Want to leave us a voicemail?

Unlike traditional quick scams, these attackers spend weeks or months building deep trust before pulling the rug. Inside the Scam Compounds: The tragic reality that many of the people perpetrating these scams are actually human trafficking victims themselves. Individuals are lured with fake job offers, trapped in heavily guarded compounds in Cambodia and Myanmar, and forced to meet strict financial quotas under threat of violence. Tracking Scams via DNS: How Infoblox monitors DNS resolution to uncover massive clusters of fraudulent domains. The surprising connections between scam infrastructure, illegal casinos, and organized crime triads laundering billions. The Industrialization of Scams & AI: Scammers now buy "Scamming as a Service" kits, complete with fake websites, coherent social media personas, and proxy networks. AI is being weaponized to automate initial contact, provide real-time translation, and generate detailed shift summaries for scammers working around the clock. VPN Myths and Helping Victims: Mael clarifies what VPNs actually do and highlights the hidden dangers of cheap streaming boxes secretly acting as residential proxies for criminals. Practical advice on how to gently guide someone into realizing they are being scammed without making them defensive or pushing them further away. *** THE BOILERPLATE *** About The FAIK Files: The FAIK Files is an offshoot project from Perry Carpenter's most recent book, FAIK: A Practical Guide to Living in a World of Deepfakes, Disinformation, and AI-Generated Deceptions.

    Exploring AI Psychosis (feat. Dr. Ian Gold)

    Welcome back to The FAIK Files! In this week's special interview episode: We sit down with Dr. Ian Gold, Professor of Philosophy & Psychiatry at McGill University, and author of Suspicious Minds. We define the slippery boundaries between psychosis, delusion, and conspiracy theories - and where those become 'clinical'. A deep dive into "AI Psychosis," the "Truman Show Delusion," and whether AI models are the first real "Philosophical Zombies." We explore how culture and environment—including the virtual environment of the internet—act as risk factors for mental illness. Want to leave us a voicemail? Here's the magic link to do just that: ⁠⁠⁠https://sayhi.chat/FAIK⁠⁠⁠ You can also join our Discord server here: ⁠⁠⁠https://faik.to/discord⁠⁠⁠ *** NOTES AND REFERENCES  *** Our Guest: Dr. Ian Gold: Dr. Ian Gold's Website: https://www.socialscience.international/ian-gold Get the Book "Suspicious Minds": https://www.simonandschuster.com/books/Suspicious-Minds/Joel-Gold/9781439181560 Check out the "Suspicious Minds" Podcast: Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/suspicious-minds-ai-and-psychosis/id1844631307 Watch the first episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/_snbD6NzQa0?si=88KXKTtEzCJ0s3BX Defining the Madness: "Every generation gets the psychosis it deserves." Dr. Gold explains the difference between clinical psychosis (treated as illness) and conspiracy theories (informational issues, not treated), even when the beliefs are nearly identical. The concept of "Mentalizing": Our innate psychological disposition to attribute mental states and consciousness to language users. AI, Zombies, and The Truman Show: The "Truman Show Delusion": The belief that one is the subject of a reality show, coined by Joel Gold. Philosophical Zombies (P-Zombies): Is ChatGPT an entity that looks human from the outside but has "no one home" on the inside? Environmental Psychosis: Comparing the potential for AI-induced psychosis to phenomena like the Jerusalem Syndrome or Stendhal Syndrome, where specific environments trigger temporary psychotic states. Social Determinants and The Virtual City: Known risk factors for psychosis include adverse experiences, immigrant status, and living in dense cities. The discussion raises a critical question: If living in a big city increases psychosis risk, does living on the internet (a virtual mega-city) carry the same risks? The "Moral Panic" cycle: From radio to AI, how we react to new technology vs. legitimate concerns about political influence and mental health. *** THE BOILERPLATE *** About The FAIK Files: The FAIK Files is an offshoot project from Perry Carpenter's most recent book, FAIK: A Practical Guide to Living in a World of Deepfakes, Disinformation, and AI-Generated Deceptions.
