Kate Middleton: Unspeakably continue trolls conspiracy theories – “Video is a product of artificial intelligence”

Yet, trolls continue to feed and traffic for her, claiming that the video with the announcement that she was diagnosed with cancer is a product of artificial intelligence (AI). Kate Middleton’s touching video showing her sitting on a bench at Windsor Castle and announcing to the world about her diagnosis caused shock and emotion and was supposed to put an end to the frenzy theories conspiracies about where she is and her health. The Princess of Wales, as the British media writes, will retire along with her family, at the home of the princely couple at Anmer Hall, Norfolk, in the hope that she may calmly face her illness. However, strange conspiracy theories continue, as hard trolls spread “scoffing speculations”, as they call them British media, that Kate’s video was created with artificial intelligence. In fact, in an attempt to prove how easy it is to create a deepfake video, they placed on Kate Middleton’s face, the faces of the late Diana and Megan Markle. To prove the theories about AI, they were posted to X (Twitter), claim Kate’s striped sweater “continues on the bench” and that her glowing engagement ring “was gone for a while”. “This is another ridiculous conspiracy theory. What you see is a reflection on the lacquered surface of the bench,” many users respond. A message from Catherine, The Princess of Wales — The Prince and Princess of Wales (@KensingtonRoyal) Claims that a video seven years ago that appears to show Kate wearing the same sweater was used as a template for creating the AI has also been intercepted by social media users. Bruce Daisley, a former head of Twitter in the UK and Europe, told Sunday Times that the “most serious issue” is how X algorithms promote unreliable content. The theories – which were “baptized” #KateGate – became frenzy following the publication of a photo on official social media channels for Mother’s Day, when it became clear that the photo had been modified using Photoshop. Several agencies issued “kill” notices for photography because it had been significantly modified – with online aspiring detectives pointing out the imperfections of the photo, which Kate stated she processed herself. Things were not helped when the Getty Images photo agency later stated that a picture of Queen Elizabeth sitting with her grandchildren and great-grandchildren, also taken by Kate, had been “digitally improved at source”.
