Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu posted a video to mock social media rumors about his death. The video was shared on his official X account and showed him at The Sataf cafe in the Jerusalem Hills, Israel. But the situation took an unexpected turn when Grok, Elon Musk‘s AI chatbot on X, labeled the footage an “AI-generated deepfake.”
According to NDTV, the rumors started last week, with videos circulating that allegedly showed Netanyahu with six fingers. This happened during the ongoing US-Israel joint war against Iran and Tehran’s retaliation, which has destabilized the Gulf region. Netanyahu’s video was clearly a sarcastic response to all the speculation.
