Abstract
Nowadays, it is very easy to edit images and create fake photos using advanced tools and deepfake technology. This
creates problems like spreading false information and security risks. In this project, we developed an AI-based system to detectfake images, mainly for use on social media. The system uses ResNet to understand important features of an image and U-Net tofind exactly which part of the image is edited. It not only detects whether an image is fake but also shows the modified areaclearly. The model is designed to run on a Raspberry Pi, making it lightweight and suitable for real-time use. This system can beuseful in areas like social media monitoring, document verification, and cybercrime investigation
