AI-Generated Video Attacks on Real-World Crisis Events: RA-Bench shows detectors fail on crisis-media forgery
Introduces RA-Bench, a benchmark of 17,886 videos (1,830 real anchors, 16,056 generated) across 10 social-risk categories, and shows that none of the three detector families tested generalizes reliably to realistic crisis-event forgeries, especially those that fool humans and survive social media compression.
