Deep Fakes: AI Scams, Fake Nudes & the Principal Who Got Framed

Deepfakes have officially gone feral. This week on Flogs, Flan and Craig dive into the wildest AI‑generated disasters—from dodgy nude‑making apps and malware‑ridden “undress” tools, to the high school principal whose life was blown up by a fake racist audio clip. We also break down the Super Bowl crypto scam that used an AI Donald Trump to convince thousands of people to “double their money,” plus a few personal stories about scams closer to home. To finish, we explore the surprisingly filthy alternate meanings behind “a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush.” AI chaos, scams, stupidity, and a whole lot of laughing at humanity’s downfall.
