The Iranian women Trump ‘saved’ from execution are simultaneously real and AI-manipulated
On Wednesday, President Donald Trump claimed to have secured the release of eight Iranian women condemned to execution for protesting the regime.
Only the night before, he had posted on Truth Social about the imminent executions of these women, quoting a screenshot that included a collage of eight glamorously backlit, soft-focus portraits. The photos of the women were immediately accused of being AI-generated. "Trump is begging Iranian leaders to not execute 8 AI-generated women. This is the funniest thing I've ever seen," said one viral X post.
