用通用模型检测深度伪造，发现多数基准测试其实测的是通用理解而非真伪识别能力。

As deepfake generators approach perceptual indistinguishability, reliable detection becomes critical. Yet, detectors that score well on benchmarks routinely fail in the wild. A concerning feedback loop has emerged: benchmarks drive increasingly complex, engineered detectors, yet if those benchmarks do not reflect real-world deepfakes, this complexity may be solving the wrong problem entirely. This raises a prior question: what are these benchmarks actually measuring? We conduct an audit of video, image, and audio deepfake benchmarks using a deliberately simple diagnostic. If a linear probe on frozen, general-purpose self-supervised representations can approximate the performance of a bespoke detector, the benchmark is largely rewarding general modality understanding rather than forensic understanding. This has two implications: the benchmark may not reflect realistic threat models, and it raises the question of whether the bespoke detectors the probe approaches are truly learning forensic understanding. We observe, across three modalities, linear probes on general-purpose self-supervised representations closely approach the performance of bespoke detectors. We further show that generator-level difficulty is partly explained by Frechet geometry in the same representation space. Together, these results support a benchmark-audit view of deepfake detection: before high scores are read as evidence of forensic understanding, it is worth asking how much of the benchmark is already solved by general-purpose representations.
