Vice President Kamala Harris has been accused of using artificial intelligence to create the appearance of a large crowd waiting for her when her plane landed at a recent campaign rally in Detroit. The accusations come after images and videos surfaced online showing what some are calling an "unusually large crowd" gathered to greet the Vice President as she disembarked from her plane.
However, several sources have come forward to debunk these claims, stating that the images and videos were not manipulated using AI. The Harris campaign has also denied any involvement in creating or altering the images and videos.
Despite the denials, some critics of the Vice President have continued to question the authenticity of the crowd, suggesting that it may have been digitally enhanced to make it appear larger than it actually was.
In response to the accusations, the Harris campaign has released a statement saying, "The Vice President and her team are committed to running an honest and transparent campaign. We categorically deny any involvement in the creation or manipulation of images or videos to make it seem like there was a larger crowd than there actually was."
The controversy has sparked a debate about the use of AI in political campaigns and whether it is ethical to use technology to manipulate images and videos to create a false impression of support.
As the 2024 presidential campaign heats up, it remains to be seen how this controversy will impact the Vice President's campaign and whether it will lead to further scrutiny of the use of AI in political campaigns.
