Amnesty International faces criticism over AI-generated images of Colombian protests

Human rights advocacy group Amnesty International has come under fire for using artificial intelligence (AI) to produce images for its social media accounts. The group was criticized for the authenticity of the images, which were created to publicize police brutality in Colombia during national protests in 2021. However, discrepancies in the images, such as uncanny-looking faces, dated police uniforms, and incorrect flags of Colombia, led to criticism of the group’s use of AI. The images were ultimately retracted by Amnesty International, which also included a disclaimer at the bottom of each image stating that they were generated using AI. The
