In a surprising turn of events during an annual news conference in Moscow, Russian President Vladimir Putin found himself briefly taken aback when confronted by an AI-generated version of his likeness.

The AI ‘replica’ used the opportunity to pose a question to Putin regarding artificial intelligence. The virtual figure, seemingly a student from St. Petersburg State University, quipped, “Vladimir Vladimirovich, hello, I am a student at St Petersburg state university. I want to ask, is it true you have a lot of doubles?” This witty remark drew laughter from the audience gathered in the hall.

The unexpected query prompted a rare moment of hesitation from Putin, who was already in the midst of a lengthy Q&A session lasting several hours. After a pause, Putin responded with his trademark assurance, stating, “I see you may resemble me and speak with my voice. But I have thought about it and decided that only one person must be like me and speak with my voice, and that will be me.”

As an aside, Putin humorously remarked, “That is my first double, by the way.”

This incident resurfaced past speculations, particularly in Western media, regarding Putin’s potential use of body doubles in certain public appearances, purportedly due to alleged health concerns. However, the Kremlin has repeatedly refuted these claims, asserting the president’s excellent health.
