New Delhi: Actor Vidya Balan has warned fans against several inauthentic ‘AI-generated’ videos featuring her that are circulating on social media, saying she has no involvement in their creation or dissemination.
Balan, who has been a part of films such as ‘Kahaani’, “The Dirty Picture“, “Tumhari Sulu” and “Sherni“, shared a post on her Instagram handle Saturday addressing the same. It featured one of the fake videos of the actor.
“There are multiple videos currently circulating on social media and WhatsApp, which appear to feature me. However, I want to clarify that the videos are AI-generated and inauthentic. I have no involvement in its creation or dissemination, nor do I endorse its content in any way,” the 46-year-old actor captioned the post.
