Fake videos created using artificial intelligence have spread on social media, showing scenes of urban decline in the UK. The clips include images of rundown, taxpayer-funded waterparks and damaged public spaces. They have been widely shared online.

The videos are not real. They were generated using AI tools to appear authentic. Some of the posts have attracted racist responses from users. The content has been circulated across different social media platforms.

The spread of deepfake material has raised concerns about misinformation online. AI technology can create realistic images and videos that are difficult to verify. The recent clips add to wider concerns about how false content can influence public debate and fuel harmful reactions.
