Israel’s PM Benjamin Netanyahu responded to social media speculation that his recent appearances were AI-generated after a clip appeared to show him with six fingers. Replying to a satirical post on X, he joked about the claim and later shared a video raising both hands, asking viewers to count his fingers while urging citizens to follow safety instructions.
Amid social media chatter over Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's death, the Israeli leader on Monday replied on X to a satirical post that used an image to mock claims that his recent appearances were created by artificial intelligence.
"You raised a finger here," he said in a comment posted on Monday, he wrote with a thinking-face emoji. The reply was directed at an account that had stated recent images of Netanyahu were not AI-generated and added that he had always had six fingers.
The post comes after a televised address by the prime minister showed him with six fingers on one hand, prompting allegations that the footage was AI-generated.
Earlier, in a separate video, Netanyahu appeared at a café outside Jerusalem while sipping a cup of coffee.
