"In recent weeks, AI-generated videos showing Sullivan in drag, applying make-up, and coming out as gay have proliferated on social media. The clips all appear to have been created using OpenAI's recently launched text-to-video tool Sora 2 by users of the company's new invite-only social app. Each clip bears a Sora watermark showing the company's name and logo, though crucially, the watermarks do not explicitly identify the videos as AI-generated."
"I just wanna to let you know, I'm not happy with them, especially the ones that make me out to be zesty, the ones that make me out to be doing makeup, Sullivan said. Zesty is slang for gay. I've seen people trying to get clout and clips off of my name. It is actually defamation at this point. I'm actually takin' it there."
Harrison Sullivan, known as HSTikkyTokky, has threatened legal action over AI-generated deepfake videos that depict him in drag, applying makeup, and coming out as gay. The clips appear to have been produced using OpenAI's Sora 2 text-to-video tool and were shared via an invite-only social app. Each clip includes a Sora watermark, but the watermark does not explicitly label the videos as AI-generated, risking viewer confusion. Sullivan reacted during a Kick.com livestream, calling the videos defamatory and saying they damage his image. U.K. courts generally do not consider accusations of homosexuality defamatory, but Sullivan said he will sue those posting such deepfakes.
