Deepfake of a real person without disclosure
LinkedIn may expect a label or a disclosure on the video.

What triggers it
Synthetic or manipulated media (AI face/voice, doctored video) showing a person saying or doing something they didn't, without clearly disclosing that it is fake or altered.
What LinkedIn says
“Do not share synthetic or manipulated media that depicts a person saying something they did not say or doing something they did not do without clearly disclosing the fake or altered nature of the material.”
We last checked this against LinkedIn's page on .
How to fix it
Add a clear 'AI-generated' or 'altered' label in the video and post text.
Good to know
AI avatars or voice clones of real people, lip-synced edits. Obvious parody may not need explicit disclosure; otherwise add a visible label. Your own AI avatar of yourself, clearly labelled, is fine.
Can FYProof spot it?

Sounds other than speech, such as music, aren't checked.
