The Dangerous Spread of Deepfake Images of Trump's Arrest.

Fake images of Trump and Putin being arrested and imprisoned have flooded social media, created using increasingly sophisticated AI image generators. Misinformation experts warn that this is a new reality, with waves of fake photos and videos flooding social media after major news events, further muddying fact and fiction at crucial times for society. The best way to combat visual misinformation is better public awareness and education, and social media companies could focus on developing technology to detect AI-generated images and integrate that into their platforms.
