No, Saudi TV did not cover up Trump's 'coffee snub' using AI
This week, US President Donald Trump appeared to refuse to drink coffee offered to him during a royal welcome ceremony in Saudi Arabia. The act drew backlash online, with many calling it a snub and disrespectful to local traditions. But some social media users spread conspiracy theories and fake news, claiming that Saudi state-owned TV channel Al-Arabiya "fixed" Trump's manners using AI, and aired a deepfake version showing Trump sipping on the coffee instead. We tell you more in this edition of Truth or Fake.
