☆ Welcome to the era of viral AI generated 'news' images
  + stars: | 2023-04-02 | by ( Clare Duffy | ) edition.cnn.com   time to read: +8 min
None of these things actually happened, but AI-generated images depicting them did go viral online over the past week. The images ranged from obviously fake to, in some cases, compellingly real, and they fooled some social media users. There are also concerns that AI-generated images could be used for harassment, or to further drive divided internet users apart. Eliot Higgins, founder and creative director of the investigative group Bellingcat, posted fake images of former President Donald Trump to Twitter last week. Many of the recent viral AI-generated images were created by a tool called Midjourney, a less than year-old platform that allows users to create images based on short text prompts.

It's easy to formally declare a run for president — all it takes is filling out two pages of paperwork. Kanye West filled out the forms in 2020, but was only listed as a candidate in 12 states and had no chance of winning. Earlier this week, Ye said he was running for president again, and on Tuesday night, he claimed that he had asked former President Donald Trump to be his running mate in 2024. Despite the announcements, Kanye West has yet to file the most basic of paperwork required to become a federal candidate. All it takes to formally declare a run for office is a two-page "Statement of Candidacy" form.
