YouTuber MrBeast has shared his Artificial Intelligence (AI) deepfake clip to inform his followers about the scams. Meanwhile, one of the most senior European Union (EU) officials is concerned about strict AI regulations.

With the rise of generative AI tools, regulators and users became aware of the threat the technology can bring. However, the primary concern is to draft balanced regulations focusing on users’ protection but not halt innovation.

Scammers Leverage Influencers’ Popularity Through AI Deepfake Videos 

James Stephen Donaldson, the creator behind one of the world’s largest YouTube channels, MrBeast, shared his deepfake video on X (Twitter) to warn his followers about AI scams. He wrote:

“Lots of people are getting this deepfake scam ad of me… are social media platforms ready to handle the rise of AI deepfakes? This is a serious problem.”

The video tricks the viewers into believing that MrBeast is giving away the latest iPhone 15 Pro for $2. It asks the viewers to click a link, probably redirecting them to some phishing website.

Besides MrBeast, the scammers are creating AI deepfake videos using other famous personalities like Elon Musk. In September, BeInCrypto reported that bad actors are conducting crypto scams through Musk’s deepfake videos on TikTok.
