Abstract :
Intelligence analysts, journalists, and forensics experts must quickly and accurately examine and report on information in multiple modalities, including video, audio, and images. With the rise of Generative AI, these specialists face unprecedented challenges, and require effective, reliable, and explainable media detection and analysis tools. This work explores their requirements for deepfake detection tools and explainability features, with studies involving 30 US-based intelligence analysts, 24 US journalists, and 11 Bangladeshi journalists. We conclude that these specialists need an all-in-one tool for media forensics and propose an ontology-based approach to creating a navigable user interface for such a tool.
