The video created by Israeli generative AI entrepreneur Ori Bejerano has sparked controversy and conversation on social media. The video features Jewish celebrities wearing a T-shirt with a raised middle finger and the word “Kanye,” in response to rapper Kanye West’s antisemitic behavior. The celebrities were digitally inserted into the video without their consent, raising ethical questions about the use of AI technology in the creation of content.
The video spread rapidly on social media, tapping into the frustration over West’s recent antisemitic tweets and his promotion of a T-shirt with a swastika design. The celebrities in the video call for action against antisemitism, with the message “Enough is Enough. Join the Fight Against Antisemitism.”
While some celebrities have been vocal against antisemitism in the past, others have not been as active on the issue. The video does not endorse any specific organization’s efforts to combat antisemitism but calls for social media platforms to stop amplifying hate speech.
This is not the first time AI technology has been used to create controversial content. Bejerano’s previous videos have targeted far-right political figures in Israel and imagined peace in the Middle East. The video has garnered mixed reactions, with some celebrities, like Jerry Seinfeld’s wife Jessica Seinfeld, supporting it by liking it on Instagram.
The use of generative AI in content creation raises important ethical considerations and questions about consent. Despite the controversy, the video has succeeded in generating dialogue and awareness about the issue of antisemitism.
