Bangladesh’s Finance Ministry has issued a warning after a fake video featuring the image and AI-generated voice of Economic Adviser Dr. Salehuddin Ahmed circulated on social media. The ministry clarified that the video, used in advertisements and promotions by an unidentified group, is entirely false and has no connection with Dr. Ahmed or the ministry. The misleading content, created using artificial intelligence technology, allegedly harms the adviser’s social and official reputation. Authorities have taken steps to remove the video and pursue legal action against those responsible. The ministry urged citizens not to be deceived by such fabricated videos or news and to refrain from engaging in any financial transactions based on such misinformation.
