Trump supporters target black voters with faked AI images –BBChttps://www.bbc.com › world-us-canada-68440150

Faked images of black voters with Trump are a growing disinformation trend in the US election, the BBC finds.  BBC Panorama discovered dozens of deepfakes portraying black people as supporting the former president.

The fake images of black Trump supporters, generated by artificial intelligence (AI), are one of the emerging disinformation trends ahead of the US presidential election in November.

Unlike in 2016, when there was evidence of foreign influence campaigns, the AI-generated images found by the BBC appear to have been made and shared by US voters themselves.

La falta de lluvias y el calor extremo provocan la muerte masiva de árboles en Murcia, España – Stigmatis News

Los árboles de la Región de Murcia se están secando. La falta de lluvias y las elevadas temperaturas del último año hidrológico han situado a la comunidad autónoma en una delicada situación. En torno al 5,7% de su superficie forestal arbolada se ha perdido, y la cifra se eleva a entre el 15% y al 17% en el caso de los cultivos leñosos de secano como el almendro, la vid o el olivo. Los embalses de la cuenca del Segura se encuentran este mes de octubre por debajo del 16% de su capacidad, lo que ha generado que se impongan importantes restricciones a los regantes, que calculan que solo dispondrán de agua suficiente para mantener vivos los árboles frutales, pero no para sacar adelantes las plantaciones de hortalizas de invierno. La única producción que, por el momento, sobrevive es la que riegan las aguas del trasvase del Tajo. El abastecimiento humano, también por el momento, está garantizado y sin restricciones.
