Months before the NY Post story, a document passed around far-right websites detailed a vast Hunter Biden conspiracy.
The document's creator, Martin Aspen, claimed to be a Swiss intel professional.
But Aspen's face was created by AI. He doesn't exist.

A Hunter Biden-China dossier made the rounds among so many people in the rightwing internet. Steve Bannon, Newt Gingrich, even Q from QAnon.
It was created by a fake person with an AI-generated face.

I'm not sure there was a more important piece of disinformation reporting in the last couple of years than this profile of a website that instantly makes AI-generated faces.
It's proving to be a big weapon in the information war. https://www.cnn.com/2019/02/28/tech/ai-fake-faces/index.html

"Martin Aspen," who wrote a viral Hunter Biden dossier, wound up being an AI-generated persona.
The first tipoff he wasn't real? Disinformation researcher @elisethoma5 looked in his eyes.

Fake faces are becoming an easy (and free!) weapon in the info wars.
Before the fictional Martin Aspen's Hunter Biden dossier, Facebook took down AI-generated profiles tied to pro-Trump
sites like The Epoch Times and anti-Trump governments like China.
