Recently, former US President Donald Trump posted a video generated by artificial intelligence on his controlling social media platform Truth Social, which attracted widespread attention. The video attempts to portray the future of a Trump-ruled Gaza Strip, with fantasy content that attracts many eyes.
The beginning of the video shows a scene of war-torn Gaza, where armed men wander in the ruins, children run in crisis, the picture is heavy and depressing. However, this scene quickly transforms into a colorful picture, showing a fictional "Gasharago". The video shows towering waterfront towers, with billionaire Elon Musk having snacks leisurely on the beach, giving money to the children, and a huge golden statue of Trump and scenes of Trump himself playing with Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu by the pool.
In this fictional Gaza paradise, people hold golden Trump's avatar balloons in their hands and buy mini-films, as if they have entered a utopia full of wealth and joy. What is even more surprising, however, is that the video also shows a group of dancers with vague gender performance, who dance enthusiastically on the beach, wearing sexy outfits, and their long hair and beards are confusing. Although Trump and his supporters have derogatory attitudes towards trans and gender nonbinary groups, the appearance of these dancers is surprising.
During his presidency, Trump adopted a series of policies targeting gender identity, including prohibiting transgender people from serving in the military and prohibiting minors from receiving gender-confirmed care. His policy tendencies contrast with the content of the currently published video, making it difficult to understand the intention of the video. This manifestation of contradiction has sparked widespread public discussion, with many questioning whether Trump is trying to reshape his image in this way.
In addition, Trump has always been keen on AI technology during his campaign, and has released multiple AI-generated images, including synthetic images depicting his opponent Kamala Harris as a communist. The current video posting on social media shows his vision of the future of Gaza, but ignores the dilemma faced by tens of thousands of Palestinian civilians and Israeli hostages in reality, which is unsettling. This disconnected fantasy not only fails to solve practical problems, but may intensify regional tensions.
In this AI-generated ad, Trump portrays Gaza as a place full of wealth and joy, but the reality of Gaza is still in a difficult situation. It can be said that although this video is gorgeous, it lacks respect and understanding of reality. It is more like a political propaganda than a real vision of Gaza's future.
In general, although the AI video released by Trump has attracted a lot of attention, the huge gap between its content and reality, as well as the neglect of the current situation in Gaza, makes this video look particularly out of place. Not only does it fail to provide any substantial solution to Gaza's future, it may instead cause more controversy and doubt.
