AI-generated video shows Lula da Silva as an Easter Bunny
This content was posted by an official campaign profile on Instagram


A vídeo that shows Brazilian president Lula da Silva dressed as an Easter Bunny was generated with artificial intelligence. The content was posted by an official campaign profile on Instagram in order to publicize federal government measures. It shows the president opening chocolate eggs with prizes that represent social programs such as Farmácia Popular.
It is evident that this is a synthetic video due to the fantastical appearance of the images and inconsistencies such as the presence of ten fingers on Lula’s hands—who actually has only four fingers on his left hand due to a workplace accident. The post, however, did not disclose the use of this technology.
