RT launches AI-generated presenters without consistent disclosure
RT unveiled AI-generated 'journalists' Anastasia and Alexander on its Spanish-language channel RT Español. In 70% of the videos reviewed, the broadcasts failed to disclose that these presenters were artificial. The presenters covered a range of topics, including controversial and politically sensitive subjects, raising ethical concerns about transparency and potential manipulation of audiences.
