should have been.

YouTube shouldn't allow deepfakes like this at all. They're horribly unfair to both the famous people whose images and voices are exploited, and to all the people tricked by them for even a few minutes. No one creating deepfakes like this is truly a fan of the famous person who's being used as a puppet to get clicks/views and maybe a bit of money.

Thanks for alerting people to this. But since the deepfake is still here, I posted a long explanation in reply 9. highplainsdem Yesterday #13
I thought so bucolic_frolic Yesterday #26
Don't share it. It's an AI deepfake, as I explain in reply 9. highplainsdem Yesterday #12
FarPoint, that is not only a fake, but the YouTuber ADMITS it's fake. Please see the disclaimers in highplainsdem Yesterday #9
Oh for Chrissake! FarPoint Yesterday #16
I'm so sorry the AI companies have made this kind of fraud not only possible, but easy. It's one of highplainsdem Yesterday #20
I hate this, too! SheltieLover Yesterday #21
I've added a reply/update about this thread and that YouTube channel to my Community Help thread on deepfakes. highplainsdem Yesterday #14

OMG... FarPoint Yesterday #17
That label wasn't there earlier. The YouTuber most likely saw responses - mine or others - identifying highplainsdem Yesterday #18
As a victim.... FarPoint Yesterday #19
It should be reported. Unfortunately, YouTube actively encourages their users to use AI tools. So you highplainsdem Yesterday #23
I am just going to stick with the regulars like FarPoint Yesterday #24
That's safest. And there's actually an app now to block you from seeing internet content after 2023, highplainsdem Yesterday #27
YouTube shouldn't allow deepfakes like this at all. Intractable Yesterday #22
I agree. But since it can be hard to identify deepfakes, I wouldn't want alerts or posts being hidden, as with highplainsdem Yesterday #25
Ummm. It's obvious Farpoint doesn't care. Intractable Yesterday #28
I didn't see it, and I've noticed those labels before. And other deepfakes of famous people have appeared highplainsdem Yesterday #29
I see. So you wish to cause more confusion to point out the confusion. Intractable Yesterday #30
I'm not trying to cause confusion. I'm explaining that I didn't see any synthetic-content label there highplainsdem Yesterday #31
Look at the thread overall to see the confusion you cause. Intractable Yesterday #32
And yet you post in it. niyad Yesterday #36
No, it did not when I first saw it on youtube. The alert was added later, niyad Yesterday #33
Thank you. highplainsdem Yesterday #34
Precisely! SheltieLover Yesterday #35
Thanks! highplainsdem Yesterday #37
