Church gives standing ovation to AI audio clip of Charlie Kirk saying words he never said
A church in Texas played an AI audio clip of Charlie Kirk saying words he never said to a congregation who gave it a standing ovation.
On Sunday (14 September), pastor Jack Graham was delivering a service at Prestonwood Baptist Church when he paused to play an AI-generated clip using the voice of the 31-year-old, who was killed on 10 September.
The audio using Kirk’s likeness reassured the churchgoers that he was “fine”, and said: “Do not let this violence divide us further. The enemy wants chaos, fear, and retaliation. Don't give it to them.”
He told the crowd that “America and free speech are worth it”, encouraging them to “get back in the fight”. The minute-long clip received a standing ovation from the church.
