A video of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu ordering coffee has triggered fresh debate online after claims that it may be AI-generated. The clip was posted on Netanyahu’s official X account to dismiss rumours about his death. In the video, he jokes about the claims while holding a cup of coffee and speaking to the camera. However, Grok, an AI chatbot developed by xAI, responded to a user query saying the video could be a deepfake and that no real event matching it was found. The claim quickly spread on social media, raising questions about the video’s authenticity. Israeli officials have not responded yet.
