Elly Schlein denounces deepfake video involving Roberto Vannacci
Elly Schlein, secretary of the Democratic Party, has denounced a deepfake video circulating on social media that falsely depicts her having dinner with Roberto Vannacci. Schlein clarified that the meeting never occurred and that she has never met Vannacci.
Beyond the immediate debunking, Schlein raised concerns regarding the impact of artificial intelligence on democratic processes and the potential for deepfakes to pollute electoral campaigns. She issued an appeal to all political forces, echoing a call previously made by Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni, for the responsible and ethical use of AI.
Schlein also called on social media platforms to take responsibility by promptly removing deepfake content to prevent the spread of disinformation and external interference. She noted that her team is currently working on a text to present for discussion among various political parties.
