NBC News and the Star Tribune both reported that AI‑manipulated images and videos have been misleading millions. There is one about Minneapolis in particular in which The Independent specifically highlighted a viral Minneapolis protest video that was confirmed to be an AI fake, explaining how synthetic protest crowds and overhead shots are being mass‑produced and circulated. AFP also debunked a separate Minneapolis protest clip that included an AI watermark, showing how some of these fakes are being sloppily exported. Bottom line; always check, double check, and verify....THEN REPEAT...and good luck.
