Did Trump share an AI-altered Xi Jinping photo after China's president 'humiliated' him? Here's what we know

Donald Trump's meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping has sparked discussions about a possible AI-altered photograph shared by the US president. The photo, posted on September 24, shows Trump saluting next to Xi at Joint Base Andrews. However, the details in the image seem to differ from actual photographs taken during Xi's arrival.

An AI expert stated that the image was "highly likely" to have been created using AI, noting discrepancies such as Trump's missing glove and White House chief of protocol Monica Crowley's altered appearance. Former President Trump has previously discussed his use of AI, expressing optimism about its potential impact. The controversy unfolded during Xi's state visit to Washington, where both leaders discussed trade, AI, and the US-China relationship.

Despite their public praise for each other, the two leaders presented different perspectives on the relationship, reflecting the ongoing disagreements between their governments.
