I’m back from a week at my mom’s house and now I’m getting ads for her toothpaste brand, the brand I’ve been putting in my mouth for a week. We never talked about this brand or googled it or anything like that.

Remember when you used to be able to read news on news websites?

And ads were size-limited jpg or gif images, not full-screen-locked animated takeovers that obscure the close button?

Well, it’s not Tom Cruise.

It’s AI generated synthetic media that portrays Tom Cruise onto a TikTok user using Deepfakes.
