The act of scrutinizing a photo, video, or audio clip to determine whether it's been AI-generated or digitally manipulated. In an era where AI video synthesis is frighteningly accessible, running a deepfake check has become a reflexive online behavior — looking for unnatural eye blinks, weird hair edges, distorted backgrounds, or audio sync issues. The term also applies to calling someone out with 'let me deepfake check this' before sharing content.
