High level description

With the rapid advancement of artificial intelligence, AI-driven communication tools such as chatbots, virtual assistants, and deepfake voice generators, are becoming increasingly indistinguishable from human interaction. While these technologies offer numerous benefits, they also pose significant risks by blurring the line between authentic human communication and AI-generated responses. This thesis seeks to address the growing concern of how to validate and authenticate human communication in digital environments where AI is prevalent.
