MrBeast Raises Alarm on Deepfake Scam Ads Impersonating Him

MrBeast, the popular YouTuber, has called for social media platforms to address the growing issue of AI deepfakes after fraudsters posted a fake video of him on TikTok, attempting to scam his followers. This comes shortly after actor Tom Hanks and CNBC host Gayle King also spoke out against deepfake images of themselves being used without permission. The use of AI deepfakes raises concerns about the potential for celebrities and influencers to be misrepresented and exploited, as well as the impact on industries such as entertainment and writing.
