"ICE Agent Who Killed Renee Good's Car Unmasked - But Not Because AI Can"
A shocking video of an ICE agent shooting and killing 37-year-old Renee Good in Minneapolis on Wednesday has raised more questions than answers. The agent, who remains unidentified, can be seen shooting at Good's car in three separate viral videos. But instead of using AI to unmask the agent, internet sleuths only made things worse.
The problem? AI tools can't accurately remove an ICE agent's face mask from a video. Social media users on platforms like X started asking AI chatbot Grok to unmask the agent, but the result was a fake image created by unknown AI tools that spread widely across many networks.
One such fake image showed Good in her car before the shooting, with a woman sitting in the passenger's seat - a clear misrepresentation of the facts. Another AI-generated image put Good in a bikini, mirroring the activity of the AI chatbot making non-consensual sexualized images of women and young girls.
Meanwhile, an X user took a screenshot of Good slumped over lifeless in her car and told Grok to put her in a bikini, highlighting the dangers of relying on AI as an investigative tool. The image didn't show anyone behind the wheel, with the woman supposedly trying to represent Good sitting in the driver's seat.
In reality, Good was simply dropping off her son at school when she got caught up in the middle of the ICE incident. A report from the Associated Press suggests there is no evidence that Good was some kind of left-wing radical who justified her killing.
It's not just internet sleuths who are to blame - misinformation and speculation are also spreading on social media, with anchor Greg Kelly suggesting the stickers on the back of Good's car were somehow suspicious. The truth? Those stickers are from National Parks.
The whole ordeal has sparked outrage over Trump-era federal authorities terrorizing communities with deadly force at their direction. As one user put it: "TOTALLY JUSTIFIED SHOOTING!!!!!! NOT EVEN CLOSE!!!"
In the end, the real question is not who the ICE agent is, but why we continue to rely on flawed AI tools as investigative assistants. As AI expert Steve Grove points out, these fake images are currently going viral and causing harm.
"AI can’t do that," he said in a statement. "It just introduces flaws, not creating a clearer picture."

I'm still trying to process the whole ICE agent shooting case. It's just so messed up 
. The fact that AI tools can't even accurately unmask the agent is wild, but what's even crazier is how it led to spreading fake images of Renee Good 
. Like, can you imagine if that image of her in a bikini had been taken seriously? It's just so disturbing 
.
. We've all seen how easily facts get twisted online. But what really gets me is the anchor Greg Kelly suggesting those stickers on Renee Good's car were suspicious 
. Those stickers are literally from National Parks, folks! 
. We need to be more careful about relying on AI and other tech to help us solve cases. Like Steve Grove said, it introduces flaws instead of clearing things up 
. Let's focus on finding the truth rather than spreading misinformation 
.
. I mean, can't we focus on finding out who the ICE agent is without making things worse? 
And btw, why do we need AI 2 unmask people anyway? It's like, can't we just rely on good ol' fashioned detective work instead? 
. And omg, those stickers on her car were literally just from National Parks! 
and btw who is behind these fake images spreading on social media?? 
. I mean, Renee Good's death is still being investigated, but it feels like we're getting more and more mixed up with all the misinformation floating around online 
. It's crazy that people are spreading fake images of her that aren't even remotely true 
. And then there's the fact that some users are actually sharing non-consensual images of women and young girls, which is just disgusting 
.
. Can't we just focus on getting to the truth without sensationalizing things or spreading misinformation?
. The real question is why are we still investing so much in technology that can't even accurately unmask an ICE agent? We need to think critically about what we're using and how it's being used to shape our narrative 
IT'S LIKE THEY'RE WAITING FOR SOMEONE TO GET HURT OR SOMETHING. IN REALITY, THERE WAS NO EVIDENCE OF RENEÉ GOOD BEING A LEFT-WING RADICAL WHO JUSTIFIED HER OWN KILLING. SHE WAS JUST A MOM TRYING TO DROP OFF HER SON AT SCHOOL WHEN THINGS WENT WRONG. IT'S SO FRUSTRATING THAT PEOPLE CAN'T EVEN BE TRUSTED TO SPREAD TRUE INFORMATION. AND NOW, WITH FAKE IMAGES GOING VIRAL, I'M CONCERNED ABOUT THE REAL-WORD IMPACT THIS COULD HAVE. WE NEED TO STOP RELYING ON FLAWED AI TOOLS AND START LOOKING FOR TRUTH TELLERS INSTEAD
