What did Nev Schulman say about deepfake and AI?
On July 19, we spoke withNevabout the possibility of AI and deepfakes entering the online dating world.
He said, “I mean, I do think about that. ‘Cause now, you can create a human being, or at least the likeness of a human being. And I can talk and it can think. So for sure, I imagine we’ll see some permeation of AI into online dating.”

Nev said, “It’ll probably happen more, honestly in an advertising way, is my guess. People will create AI characters to interact on dating sites just to let you know about some movie coming out, or a credit card application, or something. Or who knows?”
“But yeah, I wish we could eliminate lies,” he continued. “That we could someone create a world and a society and an internet where everyone has to tell the truth. I just don’t think that’s going to happen anytime soon.”
