Kate Middleton: Trolls Continue Unabated Conspiracy Theories – ‘Video Is Artificial Intelligence’ – 2024-03-26 07:33:42

And yet, trolls continue to feed and peddle Kate Middleton conspiracy theories claiming that the video announcing that he was diagnosed with cancer is a product of artificial intelligence (AI).

The touching video of Kate Middleton sitting on a bench at Windsor Castle and announcing her diagnosis to the world has caused shock and awe and was supposed to put an end to crazy conspiracy theories about her whereabouts and health.

The Princess of Wales, as written by the British media, will retire with her family to the home of the princely couple at Anmer Hall, in Norfolk, in the hope of being able to deal with her illness in peace.

However, outlandish conspiracy theories continue as die-hard trolls spread ‘ridiculous speculation’as described by the British media, that Kate’s video was created with artificial intelligence.

In fact, in an attempt to prove how easy it is to create a deepfake video, they placed the faces of the late Diana and Meghan Markle on Kate Middleton’s face.

To prove the AI ​​theories, they posted on X (Twitter), claiming that Kate’s striped sweater “continues on the bench” and that her shiny engagement ring “disappeared for a while”.

“This is another ridiculous conspiracy theory. What you see is a reflection on the lacquered surface of the counter”, many users reply.

The claims that a video from seven years ago that appears to show Kate wearing the same sweater used as a template to create AI has also been intercepted by social media users.

Bruce Daisley, Twitter’s former head of UK and Europe, told the Sunday Times that the “most serious issue” is how X’s algorithms promote untrustworthy content.

The theories – dubbed #KateGate – went wild after a photo was posted on the official Mother’s Day social media channels when it became clear that the photo had been photoshopped.

Several agencies issued ‘kill’ notices on the photo because it had been heavily altered – with would-be online sleuths pointing out the flaws in the photo, which Kate said she edited herself.

Matters weren’t helped when photo agency Getty Images later said an image of Queen Elizabeth sitting with her grandchildren and great-grandchildren, also taken by Kate, had been “digitally enhanced at source”.
