Julia Letlow calls John Fleming’s sharing of AI parody video ‘unconscionable’
Julia Letlow and John Fleming, two Louisiana Republicans, are disputing over an AI-generated parody video that falsely claims Letlow would become a university president after her husband's death. Letlow condemned Fleming's sharing of the video as 'unconscionable,' while Fleming accused her of using AI to attack his campaign. Louisiana recently passed legislation (HB 459) addressing AI use in political ads, set to take effect in August.
