A manipulated video that mimics the voice of Vice President Kamala Harris saying things she did not say is raising concerns about the power of artificial intelligence to mislead with Election Day about three months away.
The video gained attention after tech billionaire Elon Musk shared it on his social media platform X on Friday evening without explicitly noting it was originally released as parody.
The video uses many of the same visuals as a real ad that Harris, the likely Democratic president nominee, released last week launching her campaign. But the video swaps out the voice-over audio with another voice that convincingly impersonates Harris.
“I, Kamala Harris, am your Democrat candidate for president because Joe Biden finally exposed his senility at the debate,” the voice says in the video. It claims Harris is a “diversity hire” because she is a woman and a person of color, and it says she doesn't know “the first thing about running the country.” The video retains “Harris for President” branding. It also adds in some authentic past clips of Harris.
Mia Ehrenberg, a Harris campaign spokesperson, said in an email to The Associated Press: “We believe the American people want the real freedom, opportunity and security Vice President Harris is offering; not the fake, manipulated lies of Elon Musk and Donald Trump.”
The widely shared video is an example of how lifelike AI-generated images, videos or audio clips have been utilized both to poke fun and to mislead about politics as the United States draws closer to the presidential election. It exposes how, as high-quality AI tools have become far more accessible, there remains a lack of significant federal action so far to regulate their use, leaving rules guiding AI in politics largely to states and social media platforms.

Too bad Biden didn’t appoint someone as an AI czar to make sure things like. this didn’t happen... oh, he did! Oh yeah, it was.... Kamala!
I wonder how long it will take for the media to create the ‘she was never the AI Czar’ hoax.
The Left are such whiny babies.
Well, this isn’t a Covid-BS19 Thread, but I’m glad you could get that out of your system. ;)

You mean the models on magazine covers are touched up?

Wait….could this also mean that some research is faked??!?

How WILL we continue without government help? /sarc
Fake but true
The ad was contrived, and everything it said was true.
There are at least 2 video clips inside the content— that are completely REAL. 1.) From Panmunjon— she actually said the US has an alliance with NORTH Korea, and she didn’t correct herself as she heard herself speaking LUNACY!
2.The clip about the “Passage of time-” is completely intact and it IS the stupidity of her “wow” statement, that amazed absolutely NO thinking individual— that is who weren’t STONED out of their minds.
3.) the clip in front of Space Force personnel is original and complete. And also completely idiotic. As from a very low IQ junior high or elementary level mentality. Stoned again!
No one EVER made a video or did ANY kind of performance imitating Donald Trump’s voice and making fun of him! NEVER EVER!

“As we all know, Socialists have absolutely NO sense of humor. ;)”
We have humor. Anti-Kamala yard signs. From Biden Pee-pads to Harris Knee-pads. Etc. Hilarious!

And before that, there was Vaughn Meader. He sounded just like JFK.
Getting technology to do it is interesting, but no one on either side said those guys were a threat to the system.
Meanwhile, enjoy some Frank Sinatra. :)

They just don’t want Musk’s AI to look better than what they’ve cobbled together in Kiev.
there was a point, actually.
a man who was so wrong on covid & the jabs is not qualified to associate Trump with Hitler.
Only when MAGA insurrectionists do it. If you fake a conversation to show that Joe has all his marbles, that’s okay.
The Gaslight Media is angered because their enemies have acquired parity in gaslighting weapons!
Yes AI and in other cases Body Doubles. Some times it is Slow Joe and other times they are one of the NOT JOE's!
HeightGate...
Yes, like the one in Ukraine.
No they don’t have a sense of humor. The left takes their manipulated clips of Trump quite seriously.
To this day, many on the left still believe the lies due to spliced up videos. However, it was the corporate media who did it and aired it and pushed the lies.
So, they can take their outrage elsewhere.
