Tom Hanks Warns Fans About ‘AI Version of Me’ Promoting Dental Plan: ‘I Have Nothing to Do With It’::Tom Hanks shared a computer-generated image of himself on Instagram, warning his followers about an ‘AI version of me’ promoting a dental plan.
It’s ok Tom, . Ryan Reynolds is talking to us right now about a financial plan. It was the first thing that showed up in bing so I know it’s not a lie.
The whole doom of AI has definitely gone in a different direction than I expected. I mean, maybe this is just the first act, you know, maybe they’ll still work up to replacing and killing off human kind, but trying to pretend to be the popular kids and entertain us, wasn’t on my AI apocalyptic bingo card.
I think this type unauthorized use of somebody’s likeness is going to define the next wave of AI image and video generation. Sadly a lot of people will fall for it because they don’t know how good it is.
There was that teenager in Spain who was arrested for making nude AI models of his female classmates. I’ve had friends match with people on Tinder who then later send nude pics of them - AI generated - along with a demand for money or they will misuse it. It’s going to get a whole lot worse before the public is educated about this.
But that’s just the nasty small scale stuff. We’re going to see celebrities and public personas in all kinds of questionable roles, appearing so authentic that average people won’t notice it’s deepfaked. Great.
It’s going to be a scammers wet dream for a while.
Until legislators get caught up with it. Which they will because this is already being used for political misinformation and fucking up with very rich people’s wallets. The only solution is to go full Butlerian Jihad on it and forbid ML image generation and LLMs altogether. Before that, more than one authoritarian government will use it to manipulate the masses.
Well, it’s open source… so that cat is not going back in the bag so to speak. Some technophobe countries will try to set up a bunch of laws but outside their borders the craziness will persist. I think the only way past this is to go straight through. We’re going to see a lot of people manipulated.
Wait are you telling me that the movie Uncle Bus where Tom Hanks is converted to a bus is not true, it’s AI and it’s not him. My disappointment is immesurable and my day is ruined.
Don’t listen to the fake news media! Come on down to the Celebrity Tooth and RV Superstore, endorsed by Tom Hanks himself, and get you a tooth, camper, or RV cleaning today. If it ain’t shining, we ain’t shining. And we’ll wash it again that day for free!

Tom Needs Braces!
Goodbye dental plan!
Wait are you telling me that the movie Uncle Bus where Tom Hanks is converted to a bus is not true, it’s AI and it’s not him. My disappointment is immesurable and my day is ruined.
This is a masterpiece that I wanted to see: https://www.tiktok.com/@therealkidflow/video/7280929600958565678
(if somebody has a better mirror other than TikTok let me know)
Awwe hell no, Tom! AI, my ass! You ain’t gettin’ out of being my dental hygienist for a day that easily, goddamnit!
That’s nothing. Björk has an army of herself.
AI Version of Tom Hanks claims to be the real Tom Hanks, tells you to shoot the fake one.
Lisa needs braces!
Plot twist: the ad is the real Tom Hanks, and the version calling it fake is an AI created by a rival dental plan.
Hello. I’m Tom Hanks. The Dental Healthcare industry has lost its credibility, so it’s borrowing some of mine.
