In a world where digital boundaries are becoming increasingly blurred, First Lady Melania Trump found herself at the centre of a surreal debate this week. What was intended as a forward-thinking address on the virtues and vices of artificial intelligence quickly spiralled into a social media frenzy, with critics asking a bizarre question: was the first lady actually there, or were they watching a sophisticated deepfake?
The speculation erupted during the 'Zoom Ahead: AI for Tomorrow's Leaders' event on Friday, Jan. 16. Beamed in from the White House to the national webinar, Melania Trump, 55, appeared before thousands of K-12 students and educators across thousands of schools nationwide to discuss AI literacy.
