Ex-President Saakashvili: My AI avatar will appear soon; Bolsonaro defeated Lula with such an avatar

“The Georgian ‘oppo channels’ did not deem it necessary to show the video of my court address, dismissing it as insignificant,” former President Mikheil Saakashvili wrote on social media.

According to Saakashvili, he says this with regret, as the opposition channels’ falling ratings sadden him.

“The Georgian people decided otherwise, and on my page alone, this speech has well over a million views. 1,300,000 to be exact, which exceeds the monthly figure of all the main videos of any Georgian channel combined. I say this with regret, because I am not upset about not being shown (the people find me anyway); rather, I am saddened by the drop in the opposition channels’ ratings caused by blanking me while turning the broom-wielding Inashvili and former big-shot ‘Dreamers’ into idols.

Besides, my AI avatar will be appearing very soon. It was precisely through such an avatar that former President João Bolsonaro in Brazil defeated the incumbent President Lula from prison. Once I transition into AI, people might stop looking at other channels altogether—and, well, who knows, perhaps you should have given this some thought,” Saakashvili wrote.
