History Uncensored host and Managing Editor Bianca Nobilo explains the history and theory of deepfake images.

“When you go back to the earliest days of photography … manipulation is there almost from the start,” Mr Nobilo told Sky News Australia.

“In order to identify why deepfakes and nude deepfakes become this political tool.

“It becomes a very simple way to try and take them down.

“The body has functioned as a proxy for legitimacy.”
