Actor Tom Hanks issued a warning to his followers saying his face and likeness have been used in ads through AI without his consent.
The 68-year-old filmmaker wrote on Instagram Thursday: “There are multiple ads over the internet falsely using my name, likeness, and voice promoting miracle cures and wonder drugs.”
“These ads have been created without my consent, fraudulently and through AI,” he explained. “I have nothing to do with these posts or the products and treatments, or the spokespeople touting these cures.”
Hanks said that he has type 2 diabetes, and for his treatment, “I ONLY work with my board certified doctor regarding my treatment.”
“DO NOT BE FOOLED. DO NOT BE SWINDLED. DO NOT LOSE YOUR HARD EARNED MONEY,” he concluded his message.
