Deepfakes, Fraud, and the AI Arms Race: Reality Defender’s Fight for Truth

In this episode of Tech Talks, David Savage speaks with Ben Colman, CEO of Reality Defender, about the alarming rise of deepfake technology, its impact on fraud, and how businesses can defend themselves in a world where AI-generated deception is becoming mainstream.

With deepfake-related losses projected to hit $40 billion by 2027, companies are waking up to the threat of AI-driven fraud—whether it’s impersonation scams, reputational attacks, or non-consensual AI content. Ben shares how Reality Defender is building real-time detection tools that act as the “antivirus for deepfakes,” and why educating organizations on AI security is more critical than ever.
