True
A circulating statement attributed to President Lee — "Even if you bring in Gemini's grandfather..." — presented as a rebuttal made using AI, has been judged to reflect remarks the president actually made.
The statement portrays President Lee responding to criticism with a pointed quip involving Google's Gemini AI model, in the form "Even if you bring in Gemini's grandfather...". The phrasing suggests the president dismissing an argument by invoking a hypothetical, extreme version of the AI model.
The claim frames the remark as a rebuttal delivered "using AI" — that is, the president's comments responding to AI-related criticism or discussion.
The remark circulated with an image hosted on the presidential office domain (president.go.kr), indicating an official connection to the source material. Primary sources reviewed in connection with the claim number 12.
Details beyond the quoted phrasing — including the exact occasion, date, and full context of the president's remarks — remain limited in the available record, and the complete sentence following "Even if you bring in Gemini's grandfather..." is not established in the material at hand.
The judgment on the claim is True.
