US President Donald Trump accused Iran of using artificial intelligence to spread disinformation about the ongoing conflict, including fabricated attacks on US military assets such as refuelling planes and the USS Abraham Lincoln aircraft carrier. He claimed that some media outlets, allegedly coordinating with Iran, amplified these AI-generated false reports, which he described as damaging public trust. Reuters verified some footage of Iranian attacks on tankers, while Trump disputed large-scale pro-government rallies in Iran as AI-generated. These remarks come amid tensions between Trump, the media, and the Federal Communications Commission over war coverage.
