MAGA has been swooning over an Army soldier and her pro-Trump message. She is AI (www.independent.co.uk)

The account is an example of how artificial intelligence is being used to push political agendas in wartime

MAGA has been swooning over photos of a blonde U.S. Army soldier, walking defiantly alongside President Donald Trump to carry out the America First agenda. But there’s just one problem — she’s AI.

Images most likely generated by artificial intelligence depicted Jessica Foster wearing heels on a U.S. warship in the Strait of Hormuz, posing for selfies with Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin, and giving a speech at the president’s “Board of Peace” event earlier this year.

The account, which has since been taken down, gained more than one million followers since its mysterious creator started posting on it four months ago, The Washington Post reports.

I'm gonna go out on a limb and reach for it... and say that on a LST, that platform exists... but considering the time, those ships are all decommissioned

You can see Aegis radars where they would appear on a destroyer, but on an actual ship, if she were standing in front of the bridge, she'd be out next to the 5 inch gun. There are no raised platforms that far out in front of the bridge on any Aegis-capable platform.

check it out, Newport class LST

there's a standing space right there with an open desk and then the bridge

idk looks similar to me, i spent time on one

There's no Aegis on an LST, and that large, pale hexogonal shape behind her is part of the Aegis weapon system.

Please, if you want to settle this, take it to the warthunder forums, especially if anyone is about to drop classified info to prove a point, it belongs there.
