Trump supporters use artificial intelligence to portray ex-president surrounded by black voters
Kyiv • UNN
Trump supporters are using artificial intelligence to create fake images showing the former president surrounded by smiling and laughing groups of black voters, in an apparent attempt to attract African-American support for his potential 2024 presidential campaign.
There are images circulating on the Internet in which former President Donald Trump is surrounded by smiling and laughing groups of dark-skinned people. A BBC investigation claims that this is a fake spread by supporters of the former US president, as the images were created with the help of artificial intelligence, reports UNN.
Details
The images, some of which have been viewed several million times, show Donald Trump surrounded by African-American voters or two black men wearing the famous "Make America Great Again" cap, the Republican candidate's campaign slogan. The first few seconds of the footage look convincing.
However, a number of details, such as the third hand of one of the voters, make it clear that it is a forgery.
The journalists' investigation suggests that the photos in question are the "work" of his supporters, including conservative TV show host Mark Kaye. The latter admitted to having generated them.
If people vote because of a simple photo, that's their problem
Perhaps the fake photos are part of a clear goal of Donald Trump's campaign: to get the attention of young black men who could be instrumental in victory.
Cliff Albright, co-founder of the group Black Voters Matter condemns such a process:
Therein lies the problem with social media. People are so easily fooled
