The world is increasingly not as it seems. With the growth of digital technologies, eye trickery has never been more sophisticated, and with each passing year, the saying "seeing is believing "becomes less true. To highlight this issue, United Kingdom TV network Channel 4 recently released a deepfake video of the Queen performing a TikTok dance as part of her Christmas address, provoking a mix of confusion, offense and delight among British viewers. Shown as the genuine monarch gave her traditional Christmas Day speech, the Channel 4 digital fake was intended to warn viewers that what we see and hear is not always as it seems.
