Taylor Swift Deepfake Uproar: Swifties Angry

Taylor Swift had a bad experience when fake pictures of her spread online, getting 45 million views before they got taken down. These fake pictures showed her in a bad way on X (a social media site). This made her fans, called Swifties, really mad. People are worried about this because of AI, which is a kind of technology. Famous people like Tom Hanks and Scarlett Johansson have talked about how AI can be bad.

Swift’s fans came together online with the hashtag #ProtectTaylorSwift. This isn’t the only time something like this happened. There were also fake videos of President Joe Biden and videos with sad things about dead people. The White House is doing things to stop these fake things.

This shows we need to be careful with AI, especially with fake videos. People want to make sure famous people are safe from fake stuff online.
