Infosys founder on deepfakes

Murthy’s post in public alert clarified that he is not trading on platforms such as BTC AI Evex, British Bitcoin Profit, Bit Lyte Sync, Immediate Momentum, Capitalix Ventures etc

Infosys founder Narayana Murthy has sounded the alarm regarding the dissemination of fabricated videos and images across diverse social media platforms in the wake of escalating concerns surrounding the prevalence of deepfake technology. A deceptive piece of content apparently falsely implies Murthy’s involvement in investments on various trading platforms.

Murthy took to the microblogging platform X to address the pressing issue, shedding light on the urgency of countering these misleading endorsements. The fake visuals, circulating on social media networks, have sparked widespread speculation about Murthy’s alleged investments, prompting the need for swift corrective measures.

His X post read, “In recent months, there have been several fake news items propagated via social media apps and on various webpages available on internet claiming that I have endorsed or invested in automated trading applications.”

Murthy’s post clarified that he is not trading on platforms such as BTC AI Evex, British Bitcoin Profit, Bit Lyte Sync, Immediate Momentum, Capitalix Ventures etc.

The Infosys founder added his deepfakes appeared on those news websites that pretend to be real but in reality, spread false news and even publish fake interviews using deep fake pictures and videos.

Denying all endorsements categorically, Murthy confirmed he doesn’t have any association with the websites or applications and cautioned masses to not fall prey to the malicious sites and to the products or services they are trying to be sold.

He urged, “Please report any such instances to the concerned regulatory authorities.”

Murthy’s alarming post was appreciated in majority. Many people were grateful to the veteran for underlining the serious issue.
