AI-Cloned Voice Falsely Depicts Kenyan President William Ruto Speaking French in Viral Video
2024-02-19
A video widely shared on TikTok and Facebook falsely presents Kenyan President William Ruto speaking in French during a speech in Tokyo on February 7, 2024. A reverse image search confirmed the original footage shows Ruto speaking in English to the Kenyan diaspora. The manipulated version used AI-generated French audio over the original video, making it a case of voice cloning rather than a full audiovisual deepfake.
