BE CAUTIOUS OF FAKE CONTENT PRODUCED BY ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE

The statement expressed that perception operations are being carried out with unrealistic visuals, sounds, and videos prepared using deepfake technologies. It was pointed out that these contents attempt to manipulate societal sensitivities.
“FOLLOW OFFICIAL SOURCES”
DMM called on citizens to only trust the statements of official authorities. It was emphasized that caution should be exercised against shares that are sensational, emotionally charged, and have uncertain sources. Additionally, it was pointed out that unverified information should not be shared, as such content could be a component of "psychological operations."
