A manipulated video that mimics the voice of Vice President Kamala Harrissaying 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.
Oh, I actually was able to see it without an account-- Thank you for finding/sharing the link!
It’s uh… Pretty much exactly what it sounded like from the article. It’s pretty clear to me that it’s satire and fake, but I’m not sure that it would be to, say, some of my family members.
