"The post, which was mysteriously deleted hours later, but can be accessed via an archived version, shows a fake Fox News clip featuring Trump's daughter-in-law, Lara Trump. In the clip, an AI-generated version of Lara Trump alleges that the president had "launched a historic new healthcare system," featuring "medbeds," an unhinged conspiracy theory about secret "beds" that can supposedly cure practically any ailment."
"The actual Fox News, usually a die-hard ally of the president, quickly acknowledged that the segment "never aired on Fox News Channel or any other Fox News Media platforms." It's a new low for the president, in other words, who has already garnered a reputation for posting all kinds of AI slop on social media, from pictures of fake sports cars and a litany of AI self-portraits to videos of bearded belly dancers in Gaza."
President Donald Trump shared a clearly AI-generated video on Truth Social that was deleted hours later but remains accessible via an archive. The clip mimics a Fox News segment and features an AI-generated Lara Trump claiming the president "launched a historic new healthcare system" centered on conspiracy 'medbeds' that supposedly cure nearly any ailment. The video also shows a deepfaked Trump in the Oval Office announcing distribution of 'medbed cards.' Fox News stated the segment never aired on its platforms. The post continues a pattern of the president sharing AI-generated content and raises questions about intent and discernment regarding deepfakes.
