The first edition of the weekly London Standard features an AI-generated picture of Prime Minister Keir Starmer on its front page.

The magazine-style cover features a disclaimer in the bottom left to say: “Image of Keir Starmer created by AI.” The picture accompanies a feature about London’s potential as an AI capital, written by political editor Nicholas Cecil.

It fits what Paul Kanareck, the Standard’s interim chief executive, told Press Gazette earlier this week about the title’s intentions to experiment with AI.
