AI Deepfake Yonisomanasikāra AwarenessAbstract
The purpose of this academic article is to study the nature of AI Deepfakes and to propose a guideline to explain the principles of Yonisomanasikāra and its application to be aware of AI Deepfakes.
From the study, it was found that AI Deepfakes is a form of Generative AI that can create synthetic media, including still images, sound, and moving images, along with imitating the voices of real humans to talk to the point that they are almost indistinguishable. Artificial intelligence can have a learning system or Deep Learning from a person's external characteristics such as skin colour, eyes, mouth, nose, and various appearances with the intelligence of learning from the enormous data of Generative AI.
AI Deepfakes have both advantages and disadvantages or a double-edged sword. Therefore, it is necessary to be aware of them in order to put them to good use without any negative consequences truly. The tool that supports AI Deepfakes is Yonisomanasikāra or doing things in the mind in a subtle manner. It is a principle of Buddhism that can be distilled and examined for humans to use their thinking skills using the 10 Yonisomanasikāra processes, namely: (1) the method of thinking by investigating causes and factors, (2) the method of thinking by separating components, (3) common thinking method, (4) Four Noble Truths/problem-solving thinking method, (5) thematic relationship thinking method, (6) a way of thinking that sees benefits and solutions, (7) a way of thinking that knows real value - artificial value, (8) a way of thinking that encourages morality, (9) the present-based thinking method, and (10) a way of thinking that is Vibhajjavāda before deciding to use it correctly according to morals.
Yonisomanasikāra is an internal factor of the right view. It requires factors to occur together, including mindfulness and clear comprehension integrating with the 4 Dharma elements (reason, discrimination, truth, and value) in order to be able to understand AI Deepfakes. However, Yonisomanasikāra is just a method of thinking system so that the wisdom can cut it off completely, decide it with pleasure, or let wisdom solve the AI Deepfakes problem for sure. So you will be able to get correct, appropriate, and truly beneficial answers.
