Someone made one of those "America's Got Talent" highlight videos using some AI content which even said so when you clicked on it as YouTube obliges it. But even then it was obvious that the young man about to sing was AI generated. What wasn't was the footage of Simon Cowell and others reacting to what would have been some other act.
Despite this the comment section was full of genuine praise for this brave young man who had lost his entire family and now presented himself on the show to sing in their honor.
It would have been heartwarming had it been true and only a handful of comments bemoaned the fact that so many had been duped by the technology.
This is where we are today in the era of echo chambers and now manipulation of images and voices which will even more test our ability to think critically. An ability which was already lacking to begin with.
