Visconsin Supreme Court Candidate Brad Schimel responds to an advertising ethics complaint

Green -Bay, WBay – a conservative who was running out of the open place in the Visconsin Supreme Court, denied that artificial intelligence was used in advertising, changing the facial expression of his liberal opponent. This accusation is now the Center for a Complaint Filed at the Visconsin Ethics Commission.

Visconsin’s law requires disclosure in manipulated AI-Manipulated Political Advertising, and the complaint filed by Judge Daine Susan Crawford, indicates that the campaign of Judge Vokosha Vaoksh Schimel did not do so.

The winner of the racing with high rates on April 1 will determine whether the Visconsin Supreme Court remains under the liberal majority or goes to conservative control.

Schimel campaign begins and ends with a black and white image of Crawford when her lips are closed. Almost the same color image from her mileage of 2018 for the Daine District Court shows Kroford with a wide smile on her face. The Shimel campaign acknowledges that the image has been changed, but not using AI.

If you do not reveal any use of AI, it has a fine of $ 1000.

“AI was not used, so there is no problem or problem according to the law. It’s a desperate distraction, ”Shimel said.

His campaign says that the image was changed from respect for the victim in the case that advertising accuses Crawford of Mishandling.

“The explanation is that she does not want to have an old photo of her smiling when we say that she has made a bad decision in her past. This is what was the thinking of people who create a video, ”Shimel said.

Governor Tony Evers also faced a dispute during Stop the DU Lac Fund.

“We need to go back to the basics we want to hire as justice of the Supreme Court, and I think it is really important for people to understand what they did what they have done to change this picture, it’s really bizarre,” Gov said . Evers.

Crawford’s campaign has released a statement that said: “We are grateful that the Visconsin Ethics Commission seriously perceives this deception and manipulated. Visconsinites have long seen Brad Shimel’s shade and corruption – from providing an agreement for a child’s predator after receiving thousands in a campaign in cash from a man’s lawyer to allow more than 6,000 sets of rape to sit unverified for two years, until the victims were waiting for justice. We urge Ethics Commission to carefully investigate this case, which platforms and systems of the Schimel campaign used to manipulate this image, and determine whether it violates the Law 123 Wisconsin 2023, which requires the disclosure of manipulated images. Wisconites deserve better than erroneous advertising, using deceptive and artificially modified content. “

The race for filling in this court place is expected to be the most expensive in the history of the country and already attracts national attention. On Thursday, we also asked Shimel about the support he recently received support from Elon Mask in publication on social networks.

“It’s some kind of strange feeling when you wake up one day and you will know the richest man on the planet, knows you are alive but I have never talked to him, I have never met him. I am delighted that he would help To raise awareness of the importance of this race, ”Shimel said.

Both Shimel and Crawford are moving beyond February 18, as they are the only two candidates in this technically non -party race.
