Michigan GOP Candidate Faces Backlash for AI-Generated MLK Jr. Endorsement

Anthony Hudson's campaign video featuring an AI-recreated voice of Martin Luther King Jr. has sparked widespread criticism and controversy.

Hudson initially apologized, claiming the video was posted without his knowledge by a volunteer.
He later defended the video, suggesting MLK would support his vision for Michigan.
Social media users condemned the video as disrespectful and distasteful.
The video has since been deleted, and Hudson's TikTok page taken down.
Hudson is one of three Republicans competing for Michigan's 8th Congressional District seat.
