Google’s SynthID tool has confirmed that an image of convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein standing with prominent figures next to a swimming pool was created using AI.
The AI image shows Epstein with former rapper Sean “Diddy” Combs, billionaire investor Bill Gates, rapper Jay-Z, former US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, former US President Bill Clinton and late astrophysicist Stephen Hawking.
It was shared online with captions such as, “A big happy pedo family.
