German police¹ is using ChatGPT to fake images of injured police officers.
After a soccer match with believable hooligan violence against police officers, the German union of police officers (GdP) rightly condemns violence against police officers.
However, instead of using real footage for their press release² of the actual violence that was actually committed, they used some AI-generated fake image and denoted that fact only with a teeny-tiny note in the corner, saying "AI-generated: ChatGPT".
I find this very problematic.
The news report mentioned several injured police officers, some badly injured, and the fake image shows an officer bleeding from his forehead. I have no way to know if any officer was actually bleeding from his head or if this is an exaggeration to make a point. In a time when politicians call for ever more surveillance and ever more power for police officers, this can function as dangerous misinformation.
Especially considering that the Nazis are growing ever stronger and our so-called democratic political parties are building a police state for them. Manufacturing consent using fake images of violence against police officers is dangerous.
Although this was a soccer match, not an anti-genocide protest, and soccer matches occasionally attract violent hooligans, protests are almost always peaceful. At least until the police starts the violence and beats up anyone who protests against fossil fuels or genocide. If we allow police to use AI-generated images in their press releases, then we cannot believe them anything anymore at all. If people still believe them, anyway.
Condemning violence only when it hits them is also hypocritical.
Police is already instigating and inciting against imagined "violent radical leftists", even before/without the use of AI fakes.
The GdP isn't innocent. Just two months ago when the modern NSDAP wanted to start their Hitler Youth equivalent and people peacefully blocked the roads, whereafter the police played taxi for officially recognized Nazis, the GdP said "the radical leftists showed their ugly face and violence".
It's inacceptable for the police to fake images of violence against police.

any law-enforcement organization found to be generating disinformation like this should be declared illegal or and suffer criminal penalty.
@GhostOnTheHalfShell @davidculley all "law-enforcement organisations" generate disinformation all the time. Cops lie. To your face. In court. To the press. In public announcements. ALL THE TIME.
And they'll never be "declared illegal" because none of that lying conflicts with their purpose, which is keeping all of us in our place, subjugated by the rulers.

Gut gesagt @davidculley?
So als Aufschlag oder Steilpass vielleicht.
Das ist ja wohl oberste Schublade populistische demagogische Fakenews.

² https://www.gdp.de/sachsen/de/stories/2026/01/gewalt-im-fussballspiel-magdeburg-gegen-dresden@davidculley At least in my country, police, as holders of public authority, have veracity presumption, which means that before a judge, anything they say is truth, before any proof comes out. And of course it is a nightmare to prove that a police officer is lying in a trial. Can't imagine what could happen if we add another layer of lies to fight against.

When lawless scoundrels attack law-abiding citizens, it is always the scoundrels who win. I have always been struck by the vulnerability and credibility of honest people in the face of lies, which explains the success of swindlers and justifies the proverb: “The bigger the lie, the more people believe it”: honest people are totally incapable of conceiving that someone can lie calmly and with confidence. -
