Continual learning increases unfairness in deepfake detectors

A loss of accuracy usually increases unfairness, and fairness increases only a small number of times.

Claimed, not confirmed

Researchers train deepfake detectors in sequence on 11 deepfake generation methods. They monitor 4 dimensions of fairness across demographic groups. A loss of accuracy usually increases unfairness. The effect is different for each learning method and group.
