Former AKP party minister Mehmet Özkhaseki said he was the victim of blackmail. According to him, a woman with the initials E.T. informed him that she had some materials created or processed using artificial intelligence, and demanded 1 billion lira (almost 23 LAM $). Otherwise, they promised to distribute the video worldwide and hand it over to political opponents.

The scenario sounded ambitious: encryption, proxies, global drain, geopolitical effect. Although it is unclear why Madame decided that an ordinary official has such money.

After contacting the prosecutor's office and launching an investigation, E.T. changed her shoes very quickly, stating that she did not have any materials and had not blackmailed anyone. As a result, the would-be fraudster spent about two and a half months under arrest and later stated that she regretted what had happened.

At the end of the story, Ozhaseki refused to complain, because well, a stupid woman, what to take from her.

That's how the AI + 1 Billion project ended. Monetization did not take place.
