Baby Erdo\u011fan’s Mustache<\/h2>\n

It’s called\u00a0diplomacy<\/em>, guys.<\/p>\n

This year’s European Political Community, an annual forum for European leaders founded in 2022 following the Russian invasion of Ukraine, kicked off on Friday in Tirana, Albania. Europe’s leaders were greeted with a ten-ish minute presentation<\/a> that celebrated Europe’s commitment to sovereignty and shared triumphs over evil. There were flashing lights and dance performances, and a few different video sequences. And to close out the show, as Politico<\/em> reports<\/a>, the Albanian government landed on the obvious editorial choice: a montage of the summit’s leaders pictured as AI-generated babies, who each said “Welcome to Albania” in their country’s language.<\/p>\n

It was perfect. Did baby-fied Recep Tayyip Erdo\u011fan, Turkey’s authoritarian strongman, rock a tiny AI-generated mustache? He did indeed! Did French President Emmanuel Macron smack his gum in pleasant bemusement as he watched his AI baby self smile onscreen? You bet!<\/p>\n

Our hats are off to Edi Rama<\/a>, Albania’s recently re-elected president. So far, between MAGAworld and its monarch embracing AI slop<\/a> as its defining aesthetic<\/a>, AI-generated misinformation causing chaos<\/a>, and attempted AI mayors<\/a> and political parties<\/a>, this is easily the most compelling use of generative AI in politics we’ve seen.<\/p>\n
