AI/Deepfake
Former US president Bill Clinton releases a video statement ahead of the release of Jeffrey Epstein’s flight logs and his contact list.
The archived version of the post can be seen here, which has clocked 26.6K views so far.
Newschecker noticed that the video has two separate text overlays reading, “meme/satire” and “drefanzor memes”, following which we traced the video to an X post by a parody account, drefanzor memes, on January 2, 2024. The account, which posts doctored videos as per its bio, clearly states that the video is satire.
Hive Moderation, an AI-content detection tool, found the video was “99.8% likely to contain AI-generated or deepfake content”. A Newsweek report, dated February 27, 2025, too, stated that a viral AI video, branded satirical, shows a fake former President Bill Clinton talking about the highly anticipated release of convicted sex offender Jeffery Epstein’s client.
