Donald Trump's supporters have resorted to creating and circulating AI-generated counterfeit images depicting black voters, purportedly to sway African Americans towards Republican voting. BBC Panorama's investigation unearthed numerous deep fakes portraying individuals of African descent endorsing the former president. Despite Mr. Trump's overt attempts to court black voters, crucial for Joe Biden's victory in 2020, there is no direct evidence linking these manipulated images to his campaign. Co-founder of Black Voters Matter, an organisation advocating for black voter participation, highlighted these manipulated visuals as part of a calculated effort to construct a false narrative portraying Mr. Trump has been widely embraced within the black community.
