Deep Fakes

This chapter examines the recent rise recent years of cultural deep fakes as tools of resistance or protest in the cultural heritage domain. New technologies and techniques are also being adopted worldwide by communities and artists who are generating cultural deep fakes to “speak back” to cultural hegemonies or speak nearby the marginalized. Blockchain technologies are emerging in parallel as tools for the redistribution or reparation of displaced or stolen cultural property. Decolonial practices are not, however, being evenly implemented in memory organizations.. Solutions are additionally proposed for museum, archive, and library professionals to resolve issues of data sovereignty and structural biases embedded within cultural big datasets, which are being reinforced through classification systems in addition to generative AI applications such as large language models (LLMs). The chapter further outlines the capacity of emerging technologies to contend with heritage at risk is also being harnessed to archive and digitally preserve objects, sites, and collective cultural practices or memories under threat.
