    Non story. So some random people generated obviously fake pictures and put them online? That’s a lot less than the Trump campaign generating them, using them, and claiming they’re real, like the headline suggests. But congrats on platforming some literal-nobody conservative podcaster on a national news page. I’m sure this will finally convince Trump supporters otherwise.

      I despise Trump and the GOP more than most ( I guess probably average for Lemmy) but this is right on. I wouldn’t be surprised is Gizmodo generated it just to make some click bait. Biden supporters are making negative AI bullshit too. This is just a load of crap with AI stamped on it. Avoid the hype.

        Thanks for agreeing. Never forget that Trump’s original campaign (and the wave of alt-right shit that followed) was made entirely by every leftist news organization in the country trying to get their slice of the “YOU WONT BELIEVE WHAT TRUMP SAID TODAY” outrage pie. This is no different. It’s literally the biggest spotlight this random MAGA podcaster has ever gotten. Literally no one on the right will be convinced to leave their cult off this article but they’re sure as hell giving a pretty big platform for someone who would otherwise just be another “who cares?”
