Over the last few weeks, we’ve shown how AI-generated visuals can mislead. Meet the cast: a unicorn, a nurse, a reporter and a girl. All AI-generated. All created in seconds. Before reacting, pause, check the source and #ThinkBeforeYouShare

AI-generated photos and videos often trigger shock, fear, or outrage, pushing you to react immediately. If what you see online makes you feel an intense emotion, pause, check the source and #ThinkBeforeYouShare

When news breaks, AI-generated photos and videos can appear almost instantly. In the rush to know what’s happening, don’t settle for the fastest visual. Slow down, check the source and #ThinkBeforeYouShare

AI can now mimic a person's face and voice with startling accuracy. Deepfakes can make anyone appear to do or say anything. A familiar face or voice no longer guarantees authenticity. Be cautious. Check the source. #ThinkBeforeYouShare

EES rollout continues across Europe. Check your destination’s border procedures before travelling: travel.gc.ca/travelling/tra…

Today, pictures and videos created or changed by AI can look just like real ones. You can’t always tell if a photo or video is fake just by looking for clues. Check the source. Every time. #ThinkBeforeYouShare
