Anup Soni calls his fake AI generated video promoting betting “scary and threating”
Hindustan TimesActor Anup Soni was in for a shock when a viral video of him promoting a cricket bookie reached him through social media, and he realised he is the latest target of AI generated fake videos. I was shocked to hear my voice on a video I never made,” says Soni, adding that while the video is his, the words used in the audio script have been picked from another video, narrated by his AI generated voice. Of late, several celebrities including Rashmika Mandanna, Ranveer Singh, Alia Bhatt, Ashutosh Rana among others have been at the receiving end of deepfake and AI generated videos of them doing the rounds on social media. Soni further highlights how the bookie in the fake video doesn’t have any such content on his social media page and can easily get away if authorities nab him.
