Baltimore County Police arrested****Pikesville High School’s former athletic director Thursday morning and charged him with allegedly using artificial intelligence to impersonate Principal Eric Eiswert, leading the public to believe Eiswert made racist and antisemitic comments behind closed doors.
Dazhon Darien was charged with disrupting school activities, after investigators determined they’d faked his voice and circulated the audio on social media in January, according to the Baltimore County State’s Attorney’s Office.** **Darien’s nickname, DJ, was among the names mentioned in the audio clips he allegedly faked.
Eiswert’s voice, which police and AI experts believe was simulated, made disparaging comments toward Black students and the surrounding Jewish community, was widely circulated on social media.

I thought it was particularly interesting that the only official to initially reserve judgment and fight for the principal was from their union. Unions are so important and are proving their use again and again. Also, the idiot who made the deep fake was caught essentially stealing from the school, and retaliated using the schools network to access everything he used to retaliate. Like, this is not a smart human. Some people really think they are the star of their own little movie. Real life doesn't have plot armor you dumbass.
