A fake image of a Georgia mayor kissing a person went viral. Can US voters trust everything they see?

Deepfakes and misinformation driven by artificial intelligence have become a point of deep concern for legislators, advocates and the public

An image of Bianca Motley Broom, the mayor of College Park, Georgia, kissing a man - who was not her husband - in a bar spread far and wide on Facebook. The fact that it's fake is spreading faster, now, but only after it had been seen by thousands of people.

I think this is a sad commentary about where we are in our democracy, and where we are in our political discourse," Motley Broom said. It also seeks to reinforce really tired stereotypes about women in leadership."
