Brief
Michael D. Weiss criticizes Italian PM Giorgia Meloni (tweeted 2026-05-05), calling her 'perilously close to becoming untrollable' and saying her 'AI threatens us all; just look at this thirst trap someone made of me' line outdoes her recent reply to Kremlin propagandists. Meloni had warned that AI-generated fake photos of her circulate, admitted one improved her, and urged verification before believing or sharing.
Why it matters
Michael D. Weiss (post 2026-05-05T22:19:13Z) wrote 'She's perilously close to becoming untrollable,' claiming Giorgia Meloni's line 'AI threatens us all; just look at this thirst trap someone made of me' 'surpasses her response to the Kremlin propagandists a few weeks ago.'
Key details
- Giorgia Meloni tweeted in Italian that AI-generated false photos of her are circulating, conceded one 'migliorata parecchio' (improved her appearance), warned deepfakes can 'ingannare, manipolare e colpire' and that she can defend herself while many others cannot, and urged 'verificare prima di credere, e credere prima di condividere.'
