Fake by Default: How to Prove What’s Real in the Age of AI?

Session language: English.

If any image, voice or document can be generated in seconds, how do we still prove what’s real?

For decades, a photograph, an audio recording or an email was treated as evidence. Today, any content can be generated or manipulated in seconds, and the burden of proof has shifted: digital content is now considered fake until proven otherwise.

This creates a dual challenge. On one side, fraud using deepfakes and synthetic documents that look authentic. On the other, the “liar’s dividend”, where genuine evidence is dismissed as “AI-generated”.

Gilberto Torres — Chief Data Officer https://www.linkedin.com/in/gilberto-torres/Halan Borges — Co-Founder DolutechAIhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/halanborges/Paulo Pinto — CEO XKONSULTINGhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/pauloppinto/Brian Long — CEO Summit Cognitivehttps://www.linkedin.com/in/bcl23/Art Linkov — CEO stealth startuphttps://www.linkedin.com/in/art-linkov/

Together, we’ll discuss:

  • How to ensure authenticity, integrity and chain of custody of digital content

  • What courts, companies and investigators can still trust as evidence

  • How deepfake fraud and the “liar’s dividend” are changing risk and compliance

  • The opportunities this opens for startups focused on trust, forensics and verification

This is not a conversation about fear of AI. It’s about building the tools, processes and standards that let us trust again in a world where seeing is no longer believing.
