A historian is calling for AI-generated images and videos showing the Occupation and other historical events to be labelled so they can be easily distinguished from historical evidence.
Professor of conflict archaeology and holocaust heritage at the University of Cambridge, Dr Gilly Carr, has written extensively about the Occupation and said AI-generated images of the events were shared daily on social media which was "troubling".
She said: "It's not educational if you're creating fake content, if you're creating a historically inaccurate version of the past."
Jersey and Guernsey were liberated on 9 May 1945, and Sark the following day, after five years of Nazi rule.
"It's so important that people label their photographs if they're going to put them out there," she said. "People who are not specialist on the Occupation will perhaps not know what is accurate".
