Using a deepfake to talk about the danger of deepfakes. It's a high-concept trap 💀
Why this score: The entire premise relies on the emotional weight of seeing a 'fake' Obama to drive home the point about vigilance. It uses the medium as its own argument.
Original quote: “now you see I would never say these things at least not in a public address but someone else would someone like Jordan Peele this is a dangerous time moving forward we need to be more vigilant with what we trust from the internet that's a time when we need to rely on trusted news sources”
