In what he labeled, “One of the most bizarre moments in my life,” Alex Jones received a phone call from Tucker Carlson on Wednesday only to learn it was a fake artificial intelligence robot.
The Infowars host explained he got the call during a meeting, stepped into a hallway and answered the phone.
Jones explained the fake Tucker started saying sexual things, which made him realize it was an AI copy of Carlson’s voice.
After hanging up on the prankster, Jones immediately called Carlson to inform him and his team that someone was impersonating him.
Jones later learned the person who did the fake Tucker call had bragged about it on Twitter and is planning to release it online.
Twitter account “Prank Stallone” wrote on Wednesday, “Okay so let’s say someone has Tucker Carlson’s cell number, and also Alex Jones’ cell phone number, and also an AI Tucker Carlson voice. They could IN THEORY call Alex Jones and pretend to be Tucker, and have a full conversation with him. Anyways I just did that.”
During his live, Thursday transmission, Jones called for “Stallone,” actually named Chris James, to come on the program and explain why he decided to go through with the stunt and to clarify whether he’s working for any groups or government agencies.
Later, Jones announced he is going to file a criminal complaint against James, shouting, “I call for him to be arrested now! You have sowed the wind, you shall reap the whirlwind,” a Bible quote from Hosea 8:7.
James posted a clip from the show on Twitter and said he wouldn’t be coming on the Jones show.
He wrote, “Sorry if that’s something you want to see, but my intuition screamed at me that it was a bad idea.”
The Prank Stallone account posted an article about the stunt from the soon-to-be bankrupt leftist outlet Vice Media.
