FromTheLand+FollowLeBron Sends Cease‑and‑Desist to AI Platform Over Strange Deepfake VideosLeBron James’ legal team has finally stepped in—sending a cease‑and‑desist to Interlink AI, a tool within the FlickUp platform that allowed users to generate bizarre deepfake videos of him, including being portrayed as pregnant. These went viral on Instagram under the “brainrot AI” trend. According to reports, this marks one of the first high-profile cases of a celebrity taking legal action over non‑consensual, though not explicit, AI‑generated content using their likeness. In response, the mods at Interlink said they’ve removed all realistic human models from the platform. Several Instagram accounts that hosted these videos—racking up millions of views—have already been taken down. LeBron is clearly setting a precedent to protect his image and push for clearer legal boundaries around AI-generated likenesses. #AI #Deepfake #LeBron #NBATech #Privacy #CelebrityRights #SocialMedia #TechNews4048Share
