Tom Hanks says AI version of him used in dental plan ad without his consent
theguardian.com
Tom Hanks has warned fans that an ad for a dental plan that appears to use his image is in fact fake and was created using artificial intelligence.
In a message posted to his 9.5 million Instagram followers, the actor said his image was used without his permission. “BEWARE!! There’s a video out there promoting some dental plan with an AI version of me. I have nothing to do with it,” Hanks wrote over a screenshot of a computer-generated image of himself from the clip.
The Oscar winner has expressed concerns in the past about the use of AI in film and TV, although he has not shied away from approving digitally altered versions of himself in film.

The Margot Robbie is Australian so this comment would have been written as 'now kindly fuck off, cunt.' Therefore, I am now questioning the legitimacy of this account.
Hi Margot!!
I learned that Americans get very offended at that word... it takes a lot of restraint.
Fair enough. You have always come across as a very thoughtful person.
