A report by the Bureau of Investigative Journalism has revealed that AI-powered hate videos from Pakistan were distributed in the UK to make money through Meta's advertising model.
These videos targeted British Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer and London Mayor Sadiq Khan with a fake video that was viewed by millions of people.
According to the report, a person in Pakistan was found involved in posting these videos and admitted to earning monthly income from social media, could not understand the content due to poor English and later deleted some of the posts, after which the social media accounts were closed.
A spokesperson for the Mayor of London has urged social media companies to take more action against hateful content and fraud.
