On December 29th, according to reports from Lianhe Zaobao, Singapore Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong's interview segment with CGTN in March of this year was manipulated, and false videos created using deepfake technology have been circulating on the internet. Prime Minister Lee urges the public to remain vigilant and not to be deceived.
On December 29th, Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong posted on Facebook, cautioning the public to be wary of the "season of scams." He mentioned that recently, there have been deepfake videos using his audio to promote cryptocurrency scams, and Singapore Deputy Prime Minister Heng Swee Keat has also become a target. Fraudsters use artificial intelligence technology to mimic their voices and images, altering footage taken of them in formal settings.
In this fabricated video, Lee Hsien Loong is portrayed discussing investment opportunities approved by the Singapore government on CGTN with host Zou Yun, and promoting a so-called "revolutionary investment platform" designed by Tesla CEO Elon Musk. |
