Local men across the island are mourning after discovering the viral photos of Italian PM Giorgia Meloni were actually high-quality deepfakes.

One resident from Yishun complained that the real version of the world leader lacked the specific "big asset energy" promised by the generative AI software.

Meloni herself noted that the fake pictures improved her looks, a sentiment echoed by thousands of lonely Sinkies currently wiping their hard drives in shame.

Many users admitted they would still vote for a digital avatar if it meant seeing more world leaders in lace underwear during parliament sessions.

The government has yet to comment on whether deepfakes of local politicians will be upgraded to look like K-pop idols to increase voter engagement.

Meanwhile, one SME boss has already hired an AI specialist to create a "Chiobu Meloni" receptionist to sit at his front desk for $1,800 a month.
