AFP successfully tests a new technology to verify the authenticity of its photos during the US elections
With the rise of generative AI and the growing use of synthetic images, Agence France-Presse (AFP) has successfully tested a “proof of concept” to certify the authenticity of its photos, ensuring they can be verified wherever they appear online. The Agency now plans to develop this technology further in collaboration with camera manufacturers, editing software developers, and news distributors, working towards a shared industry standard that protects the integrity of photojournalism.
