30 percent of Rob Jetten's social media posts are AI-written
An investigation by de Volkskrant found that 30 percent of social media posts from Rob Jetten and the D66 party have been generated by artificial intelligence since June 2025. The use of AI extends to portions of Jetten's book and his campaign video scripts, raising concerns among experts about the potential erosion of his credibility.
A recent investigation by de Volkskrant has revealed that approximately 30 percent of social media posts from Dutch politician Rob Jetten and his party, D66, were generated using artificial intelligence. The study identified at least 232 original posts across platforms such as X, Facebook, LinkedIn, and Instagram that were produced by AI models like ChatGPT or Claude since early June 2025. These posts, which were frequently cross-posted, amount to 434 total appearances online. The trend began shortly after the fall of the Schoof cabinet and includes content beyond social media. Evidence suggests that AI was also used to draft significant portions of Jetten's book, titled Hoe het wél kan, and to generate scripts for three separate D66 campaign videos. Experts have expressed concerns regarding this development, warning that the heavy reliance on automated text generation may negatively impact the prime minister's personal credibility and public trust in his communications.
