Peter Loge, founding director of the Project on Ethics in Political Communication at The George Washington University, said the ennobling Trump photos “appear to be a mix of hyperbole and deception.”
He noted that the American Association of Political Consultants compares these sorts of images, called deepfakes, to “false and misleading statements.” The PR Council similarly recently wrote, ”Do not use generative AI to create or spread deepfakes, nor misinformation or disinformation.”
If there is an “intent to deceive” in an ad, Loge said in an email, the ad is out of bounds.
