I conducted a preregistered survey experiment (n=525) to assess the effectiveness of "accuracy nudges" against deepfakes (osf.io/69x17). The results, based on a sample of Colombian participants, replicated previous findings showing that prompting participants to assess the accuracy of a headline at the beginning of the survey significantly decreased their intention to share fake news. However, this effect was not significant when applied to a non-harmful AI-generated video.
