A video created by Israeli generative AI entrepreneur Ori Bejerano has gone viral on social media, featuring a wide array of Jewish celebrities wearing a T-shirt with a raised middle finger and the word “Kanye” in response to rapper Kanye West’s recent antisemitic tweets and actions. The celebrities did not consent to participate in the video, which raises ethical questions about the use of AI technology for creating lifelike animations.
In the video, celebrities such as Steven Spielberg and Woody Allen appear wearing the T-shirt design, with a message calling for the fight against antisemitism. The video does not endorse any specific organization but tags the accounts of pro-Israel influencers and organizations, urging social networks to stop amplifying antisemitism.
While some celebrities have been vocal in opposing antisemitism, others, including Adam Sandler, have not been outspoken on the issue. The video also includes celebrities like Scarlett Johansson, who have previously sued to block the use of their AI-generated likeness.
Bejerano’s AI videos have tackled various topics, including Israeli politics and imagining peace in the Middle East. Despite the controversy, some celebrities, like Jessica Seinfeld, have liked the video on Instagram, showing potential support for the message against antisemitism. The video has sparked discussions about the use of AI technology in creating provocative content and the importance of standing up against discrimination.
