A pretty dramatic story out of Baltimore today which reveals what may be the first hate hoax perpetrated with the help of artificial intelligence. The principal of Pikesville High School, Eric Eiswert, was accused in January of making blatantly racist comments behind closed doors after an inflammatory audio file was posted on a popular Instagram account.
...
The Superintendent denounced the comments and launched an investigation. For his part, Eiswert denied having ever made the comments and a union leader immediately suggested the "recording" had actually been produced by AI. The president of the local NAACP also condemned the statements saying she was "disappointed but not surprised." Other voices were quick to condemn Eiswert including Deray McKesson.
...
Eiswert was apparently removed from his school and reports suggested he received threats and had police guarding his home.
But last month the Baltimore Banner revealed that experts had concluded the "recording" was AI generated:
...
Today we got further confirmation of that as police arrested the man they say created that audio in an effort to get back at Eiswert for an earlier investigation.
This is my favorite version of Galveston. It’s haunting when slowed down played as a ballad.

President Cruz would be finishing up his second term and handing it off to Gov. DeSantis without the disillusion of the Trumpers.
