田纳西州参议员玛莎·布莱克本（共和党）正在为自己辩护，此前她因分享一段疑似由人工智能生成的视频而遭到抨击，视频中她出现在说唱歌手肯德里克·拉马尔2025年超级碗LIX中场表演的位置上。
Sen. Marsha Blackburn (R-Tenn.) is defending herself after coming under fire for sharing a video, which seemed to be AI-generated, in which she appeared in the place of rapper Kendrick Lamar during his 2025 Super Bowl LIX Halftime Show performance.
周五，孟菲斯福克斯13频道记者罗布·斯尼德在Instagram上发布的一段视频中，记者就这一病毒式传播的时刻向布莱克本提问。这位立法者回应称，原始视频是由另一个人制作的，她的竞选团队分享该视频是因为她觉得这“很有趣”。“那是一个县专员制作的视频，我只是觉得这挺有趣，”布莱克本说。
In a clip Fox 13 Memphis’ Rob Sneed posted to Instagram Friday, the reporter asked Blackburn about the viral moment, to which the lawmaker responded saying someone else had made the original video, and her campaign team shared it because she thought it was “fun.”“It was a video that a county commissioner had created, and I thought it was just something that was fun,” Blackburn said.
布莱克本因分享这段疑似由人工智能生成的视频而在网上遭到批评，视频中她正在跳拉马尔的热门歌曲《不像你》的舞蹈，该歌曲是在超级碗上表演的。其他田纳西州政客出现在她身后担任背景舞者，包括众议员蒂姆·伯切特（共和党）和参议员比尔·哈格蒂（共和党）。
Blackburn faced criticism online for sharing the likely AI-generated video, showing her dancing to Lamar’s popular song, “Not Like Us” — which he performed during the Super Bowl. Other Tennessee politicians appear as her background dancers, including Rep. Tim Burchett (R) and Sen. Bill Haggerty (R).
截至周六下午，该视频在社交平台上的观看次数已超过220万次。评论者普遍对该视频做出负面反应，包括前众议员亚当·金辛格（伊利诺伊州，共和党），他说：“婴儿潮一代觉得AI能让她看起来酷。”其他用户则简单地称该视频“尴尬”。这位田纳西州参议员过去曾反对人工智能深度伪造视频，并提出了一项法案，旨在保护创作者的肖像不被未经同意地使用。
As of Saturday afternoon, the video has over 2.2 million views on social platform Commenters generally responded negatively to the video, including former Rep. Adam Kinzinger (R-Ill.), who said, “Boomer thinks AI makes her look cool.”Other users simply called the video “cringe.”The Tennessee senator has advocated against AI deepfake videos in the past, and she introduced a bill to protect the likeness of creators from being used without their consent.
斯尼德还就围绕该视频的另一个担忧向布莱克本施压：该视频可能会冒犯非裔美国人。这首歌因包含针对同行说唱歌手德雷克的嘲讽而闻名，常被解读为对黑人艺术家作品被挪用的评论。“绝不会有任何旨在冒犯的行为，”布莱克本回应道。
Sneed also pressed Blackburn on another concern surrounding the video: that it could have offended Black Americans. The song, which famously includes disses against fellow rapper Drake, is often interpreted as a commentary on the appropriation of Black artists’ work. “There would never be any action that was intended to offend,” Blackburn responded.
布莱克本正在竞选田纳西州州长，对手是民主党人杰里·格林。格林回应了对手的视频，写道：“当我说请停止使用人工智能来支持我们的竞选时，我的意思就是这个……”非党派选举预测机构Decision Desk HQ是《国会山报》的合作伙伴，预测布莱克本赢得田纳西州州长选举的概率为94%。该州自2006年以来未曾选举民主党人担任州长。
Blackburn is running for Tennessee governor against Democrat Jerri Green. Green responded to her opponent’s video on“When I say please stop using AI to support our campaign, this is what I mean…,” Green wrote. Nonpartisan election forecaster Decision Desk HQ, a partner of The Hill, gives Blackburn a 94 percent chance to win Tennessee gubernatorial race. The state has not elected a Democrat to serve as its governor since 2006.
