Bizarre moment Vladamir Putin realizes he's talking to an AI version of himself

Even political leaders aren't safe from AI

The strange moment the Russian Prime Minister realized he was talking to an AI version of himself was caught on camera.

There are obviously some concerns in the continuing artificial intelligence boom, and as we bring AI into our homes with everything from our mobile phones to robots that claim to look after our kids, it's becoming part of our everyday lives.

Even AI's most vocal critics are starting to see its potential advantages, with Donald Trump vowing to scale back the restrictions that have been placed on AI's evolution during the Biden administration. We're on the cusp of an AI-dominated future, and it seems not everyone is happy.

The likes of journalists and voice artists have shared their worries about how AI could put them out of work, but now, it looks like even Prime Ministers aren't safe from losing their jobs.

As one of the most divisive but renowned political figures out there, Vladimir Putin has been replicated in AI form. If one Putin wasn't enough, how about facing the real deal and his AI self?

In a bizarre moment, the real Putin has come face-to-face with his AI version, and it's just as weird a meeting as you'd expect.

Putin has been accused of using a body double, but with the man himself saying, "only one person can speak like myself and use my voice, and this is going to be me," AI is here to prove him wrong.

In the video, a student from St. Petersburg University shows how easy it would be to create an AI version of Putin that acts and talks just like him.

As well as asking about Putin's double accusations, the AI Putin asks what he thinks about the dangers artificial intelligence and neural networks could bring into our lives.

A defiant Putin dodges the question about dangers but adds: "Well...I see you may resemble me and speak with my voice, but I have thought about it and decided that only one person must be like me and speak with my voice, and that will be me."

Others in the comments were impressed with the AI replica, with someone joking: "Plot twist, the Putin in the press conference is actually the AI one!"

Another added, "The brief look of surprise on Putin's face is priceless. This guy is a master of presentation; he is almost NEVER caught off guard, but here, for a brief second, he was. Hilarious!! 😂," and a third chuckled, "An intense debate between Putin and his opponent in the next Russian election."

It's unclear whether the ever-stoic Putin was impressed with his AI double or can't stand it, but there's no denying the look of shock on his face when it's revealed.

AI seemingly has the cojones to ask Putin questions that the average journalist wouldn't, although there are jokes in the comments about how AI Putin mysteriously took a tumble out of a window not long after the interview ended.

Putin maintains there's only one man who can do his job, but we've got to admit, his AI double is pretty impressive.
