Typhoons and floods are hitting China hard — and with them, a dangerous new wave of AI-generated fake videos is spreading fast.

Authorities are arresting offenders and urging people to rely on official sources, but distrust runs deep, especially after past government downplaying of disasters. Experts warn this isn’t just a tech problem — it’s a societal one. With AI evolving rapidly, the battle to stop manipulation in elections, health crises, and conflicts is only just beginning.
