""Please, just stop sending me AI videos of Dad," the director wrote in a Stories post on Instagram. "Stop believing I wanna see it or that I'll understand, I don't and I won't." "If you're just trying to troll me, I've seen way worse, I'll restrict and move on," she added. "But please, if you've got any decency, just stop doing this to him and to me, to everyone, even, full stop.""
""To watch the legacies of real people be condensed down to 'this vaguely looks and sounds like them so that's enough,' just so other people can churn out horrible TikTok slop puppeteering them is maddening," Williams wrote. "You're not making art, you're making disgusting, over-processed hotdogs out of the lives of human beings, out of the history of art and music, and then shoving them down someone else's throat hoping they'll give you a little thumbs up and like it," she added. "Gross.""
A family member of a late Hollywood comedian requested people stop sending AI-generated videos of him and stated an unwillingness to view or understand such content. A new text-to-video app enabled users to create photorealistic depictions of deceased public figures, prompting immediate generation of videos of several famous deceased people. Platform policies on depicting public figures remain unclear, with some platforms allowing historical figures while promising restrictions. Critics call the videos exploitative, demeaning, and derivative, arguing that AI creations reduce human legacies and artistic histories to oversimplified, monetized digital artifacts.
