Bots, troll farms and deepfakes in elections, sentence 3
The flip side matters too: because fakes exist, people caught on a real video can shout "it's AI!", so "it's fake" is also a claim to check.
Who acts: flip side, fakes, people, side · What happens: matter, exist, catch, shout, be, check · To what, where: people, real video, AI, claim · Speech: someone speaks here
