Imran Khan’s The Economist article was not written by Artificial Intelligence, Pakistan Tehreek e Insaaf (PTI) said in a clarification issued on Tuesday.
PTI Founder who is currently imprisoned in Adiala Jail, managed to publish a Guest Essay in The Economist on Jan 5.
The clarification from PTI comes after the party’s former chairman talking to reporters at the Adiala Jail admitted that he did not write the article in question.
During an informal conversation with reporters in the courtroom at Adiala Jail, Rawalpindi, talking about the article that appeared under his name in The Economist, Imran Khan said, “I take full responsibility for the article published in The Economist recently.”
However, he admitted that he had not written the piece, confessing that it was “dictated”.
PTI founder said he did not write the piece himself, rather it was based on points he had dictated, which were put into words through the use of artificial intelligence.
In the Economist essay attributed to him, PTI founder had expressed apprehensions that the election scheduled for Feb 8 may not take place at all, adding that even if they do, such polls would be a “disaster and a farce since PTI is being denied its basic right to campaign”.
As Mr. Khan’s recent statement left the media in uproar, PTI posted the clarification on the official X account stating that “the said piece has been authored by the PTI Chairman-for-life, Imran Khan, vindictively incarcerated at Central Jail, Rawalpindi. In no way, this has been compiled through the use of artificial means including artificial intelligence.”
Imran Khan also shared with the reporters today that “next week” his party will share another of his fresh speeches on social media.
When a reporter asked the former Prime Minister whether the speech would be audio or a video, Khan replied, “Today is the era of Artificial Intelligence.”
