Abstract

The development of Artificial Intelligence (AI) technology has given rise to Deepfake technology capable of producing visual content resembling reality, creating a risk of disinformation and making it difficult for the public to distinguish real from AI-generated content. This study aims to analyze the public's ability to distinguish such content and the relationship between the public's knowledge of Deepfake AI (X1) and their ability to detect Deepfake content (Y1). This study uses a quantitative descriptive method with 100 social media user respondents aged 17-30 years, collected online via Google Forms from June 24 to July 24, 2026. The instrument consisted of five Likert-scale statements measuring X1 and ten pairs of real-Deepfake photos measuring Y1. Results show that detection ability is high (average 77.1%) and knowledge level is also high (average 3.87 on a 1-5 scale). Both instruments were valid and reliable (Cronbach's Alpha for X1 = 0.834; KR-20 for Y1 = 0.712). A Pearson correlation test showed no significant relationship between X1 and Y1 (r = -0.028; p = 0.784 > 0.05), confirmed by simple linear regression (R Square = 0.001), so the null hypothesis (H0) is accepted; conceptual knowledge was shown not to automatically improve actual detection ability. This study recommends improving digital literacy, AI content watermarking regulations, and refining the detection instrument in future research.
