A fake news report circulating on YouTube appears to deepfake the voice of Infowars reporter Greg Reese to pass as one of his real special reports.

The fake news report in question, posted Friday by “Anonymous Official”, shows Reese’s “voice” explaining how liberal astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson is warning about the return of the oblong-shaped meteor known as Oumuamua which could be disguised as an interstellar space vessel.

A fake news report circulating on YouTube appears to deepfake the voice of Infowars reporter Greg Reese to pass as one of his real special reports.

The fake news report in question, posted Friday by “Anonymous Official”, shows Reese’s “voice” explaining how liberal astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson is warning about the return of the oblong-shaped meteor known as Oumuamua which could be disguised as an interstellar space vessel.

“And we might just be on the cusp of experiencing the most terrifying cosmic encounter ever known to mankind.”

“According to the seasoned expert, we could be facing an extraterrestrial menace with Oumuamua’s reappearance. But what implications does this hold for our place in the universe? And just what are our chances of surviving this cosmic encounter?” AI Reese asks.

The channel also posted other reports using a deep fake Greg Reese voice.

In an exclusive comment to Infowars, Reese called this new development in the information warfare space “frightening.”

“The Anonymous Official YouTube channel has uploaded several of my videos in the past. And if they were left unadulterated then I would be completely fine with it. The more views the better and I am not allowed to have a YouTube channel,” Reese said.

I apologize for the double-posting of the first couple of sentences. It was an accident.

I just heard a commercial on YouTube using Jordan Peterson’s voice. I’m pretty sure he wouldn’t wax eloquent about some kind of breakfast food. Really scary what they can do.

When AI does fake voices of CNN ‘journalists’

would the news be twice as fake?

It should be illegal to even put out such videos without a warning that they are fake. There should be a harsh punishment for content creators that do so.

When AI can deep fake D Cup boobies on reporterettes, I'll begin to take a casual look-see. Gotta be full frontal headlights on, kinda created stuff though!

Lynn Russell from the 80's kinda reporterette.

Double posting text in the posts is quite common. Do you know how it happened?

If you see what happened, it would be worth a vanity post to let others know how they can avoid it! 🙂

Stand by for an AI manipulated 2024 elections. I’ll bet the leaders of the Democratic party is already looking at how to use AI to steal the 2024 elections funded by Soros of course..

Went to see the new Indiana Jones movie yesterday. In the first few minutes a youthful Harrison Ford battled with Nazis for the prize artifact.
Not a look-alike! It was Ford's CGI face grafted onto another actor's body.
Seamlessly, frighteningly realistic...

This one’s a hoot. Elvis sings “Baby Got Back” (I like big butts) on YouTube.

I post from Brave, but Brave blocks ads so I don’t see them and sometimes I accidentally post one and Karens go insane.

That is why I switch back and forth between Firefox and Brave when posting. I snag the HTML text from “View Selection Source” of Firefox and paste it into Brave.

The only way it happened is I posted the same selection twice.

I’m pretty sure he wouldn’t wax eloquent about some kind of breakfast food.

I can imagine Jordan Peterson waxing eloquent about almost anything. He's a pretty intense guy, and a big fan of a protein/fat laden breakfast.
