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.

That even ignores the even more egregious fact that she was supposedly Army. How many Army personnel are usually on Navy ships?

There are exceptions of course, and any number of possible explanations. But just that off the bat should make you pause for a second since it's weird.

On top of that, can you imagine wearing heels on a pitching deck?

She could ascend the stairs in heels like that without issue.
