Is This the First AI Hate Hoax? White Principal Accused of Racism Based on Fake Audio

A pretty dramatic story out of Baltimore today which reveals what may be the first hate hoax perpetrated with the help of artificial intelligence. The principal of Pikesville High School, Eric Eiswert, was accused in January of making blatantly racist comments behind closed doors after an inflammatory audio file was posted on a popular Instagram account.

In the recording, the person speaking refers to “ungrateful Black kids who can’t test their way out of a paper bag.”

The speaker goes on to question how hard it is to get those students to meet grade-level expectations. He uses names of people who appear to be staff members and says they should not have been hired. The speaker say she should get rid of another person “one way or another.”

“And if I have to get one more complaint from one more Jew in this community, I’m going to join the other side,” the voice in the recording stated.

The Superintendent denounced the comments and launched an investigation. For his part, Eiswert denied having ever made the comments and a union leader immediately suggested the "recording" had actually been produced by AI. The president of the local NAACP also condemned the statements saying she was "disappointed but not surprised." Other voices were quick to condemn Eiswert including Deray McKesson.

AI can be used for nefarious purposes. One can use to falsely accuse people.

The Demand for racism exceeds the Supply, so counterfeits bridge that gap.

Just like in the Me-Too era, accusations of racism are Guilty Even If Proven Innocent.

The pols and activists who condemned the Principal won't be admitting being wrong or apologizing.
If, as anti-Covid-vaxxers claim, https://www.poynter.org/fact-checking/2021/robert-f-kennedy-jr-said-the-covid-19-vaccine-is-the-deadliest-vaccine-ever-made-thats-not-true/ , https://gospelnewsnetwork.org/2021/11/23/covid-shots-are-the-deadliest-vaccines-in-medical-history/ , The Vaccine is deadly, where in the US have Pfizer and Moderna hidden the millions of bodies of those who died of "vaccine injury"? Is reality a Big Pharma Shill?

Millions now living should have died. Anti-Covid-Vaxxer ghouls hardest hit.

Nah.  The question-asker has to assume 'hate-AI' is untraceable.  Otherwise it's not 'hate'.  It's hearsay.  It's the same thing we always deal with.

Jack holding the bucket at the bottom of the hill, doesn't assume Jill's whereabouts.  AI can't assign anything to her without being traceable as fake.  So no, this isn't the first untraceable AI hate-hoax.
