The Arizona Agenda Produced a Deepfake of Kari Lake Advocating for the Publication Without Her Consent
March 22, 2024
The Arizona Agenda produced a deepfake video of Republican Senate candidate Kari Lake giving a testimonial about the publication with the seeming intention of educating the general public about the dangers of deepfakes in the coming election cycle. However, the Arizona Agenda appears not to have sought Lake's consent, prompting a cease-and-desist letter from her campaign.
