Oversight Board orders Meta to remove a deepfake of a UK councillor

The Oversight Board ordered Meta to delete two AI-generated videos: one depicting a Scottish Labour councillor making false inflammatory remarks about refugees, and another mocking a young Muslim woman involved in a menstrual-health campaign. Both videos were found to violate Meta’s hateful-conduct and bullying-harassment rules, and the board demanded higher labeling standards and policy changes for high-risk AI content.
