Donald Trump posted an AI-generated video showing himself wrestling and taming a tiger, according to The Guardian’s account of Jimmy Kimmel’s latest monologue.
Why it mattersThe clip puts synthetic political imagery back in the spotlight: a public figure can be made to appear in an invented scene, then the joke and the image travel together. Kimmel, unsurprisingly, had a line about the video’s running.
Discuss: Should public figures’ AI-made fantasy videos be treated as harmless political theatre, or labelled clearly because they can blur the line between real footage and fiction?
