Former Prime Minister Imran Khan, behind bars, asserted triumph in the 2024 Pakistan general elections through a pre-recorded artificial intelligence (AI)-generated message on Saturday.
This assertion came mere hours after his long-time political rival and former PM Nawaz Sharif declared his victory.
While Pakistan has always been a politically tumultuous nation, with the power dynamics predominantly remaining with the country’s army, what’s surprising is the use of AI in the intriguing video shared on Khan’s official X handle.
AI in elections - bane or a boon
In the video, Khan appears before a camera, yet his voice appears dissonant with his lip movements, hinting at an AI manipulation.
