A common trait of autism is the struggle with nonverbal communication.

Deepfakes could be difficult to discern as a result; since identifying them involves scanning body movement for “unnatural” characteristics.

Example: I see a deepfake of an actor; but the deepfake has a discoloration, so it is “obvious” to most people. However I wouldn’t be able to initially identify the discoloration because I wouldn’t think that it’s unnatural.

Example 2: The eye movement of a deepfake is “off”, which is “obvious” to most people; but I don’t notice because my body can’t perceive the eye movement.

Now I wonder if deepfakes could be used to imitate medical conditions (like cancer, sclerosis, acne).
