French President Emmanuel Macron used AI-generated Deepfake videos to disclose the start of the AI action summit in Paris.
In a video published on social media accounts, Macron responds to the montage of deeply melted videos in popular movies and TV series, saying “nicely ready”.
Macron videos in popular media have been circulating in the French social media in recent months.
In October, he told Variety that Deepfakes could be a “form of harassment” for some people.
Some experts have questioned the use of deep products, saying that normalization makes it difficult to detect false news.
The video, which has been seen millions of times by the President’s Instagram, X and Tiktok branches, shows that it has been integrated into the 1980s euro disco, the tutorial of the influencing hair and the action hero TV show.
Such videos have been popular in French social media for some time, so Macron admits that some social media have become a meme.
Then the real Macron says, “He did very well, laughed.”
“But even more seriously, with artificial intelligence, we can do very great things: we can change health care, energy, life in society.” said the 47 -year -old president.
He adds: “France and Europe must be at the heart of the revolution to seize every opportunity and promote our own principles.”
THE video It was published before a two -day global AI summit, starting in Paris on Monday.
The aim of the summit is to unite the leaders of the world, Tech leaders and academics to investigate the impact of AI -TA on society, management and the environment.
“President Macron may seem deeply harmless to promote the AI summit in Paris, but this is usually not a good thing,” says Paul McKay, vice president and chief analyst at Forrester technology consultant.
“It should not be encouraged to normalize deep inks in this way, as it continues difficulties by telling what is reality and what is not, and eventually promotes the facts from fiction.”
Dr. Richard Little from Salford Business School also warns the risk of normalizing “Deepfakes videos”, both in social media and fraudsters. ”
He adds, “It’s great to call this threat, but he does it to show how easy it is to create deep inks with their wider adoption.”
Prof. Philip Howard, president of the International PAD for Information Environment, says AI is increasingly “innovative, sometimes playful, as” shows “President Macron’s latest video.
But he adds: “Videos of this type are often released when public communication guidelines are unclear.”
In French media, there were some debates that Macron should trivialize -ea Deepfake videos when they can be used for damage.
Macron said in October Species Deepfakes can “give a desinform that can upset our democracies.”
He said they had to be regulated, “by taking responsibility for the people who spread this content to reduce.”
The EU’s newly executed AI law, which regulates the use of artificial intelligence, was criticized at the summit to suppress innovation.
BLOC also introduced plans for a European open source AI model with a budget of EUR 37.4 million (£ 31.1 million).
The global statement of shared AI goals and ethical responsibilities must be explored at the end of the summit.
So far, both the United States and the United Kingdom have refused to say that they were signed.
