Fake John Bolton AI video fooled 180,000 viewers. Why is it still up?

Sean Speer and Rudyard Griffiths discuss an AI-generated video impersonating former UN Ambassador John Bolton discussing Mark Carney's China visit. The fake video has garnered over 180,000 views and fooled thousands of commenters who believed it was authentic. They explore the growing threat of AI-generated fake content polluting political discourse, YouTube and Google's failure to remove such content, and the urgent need for tech companies to self-regulate before government intervention becomes inevitable.
