He doesn't eat spaghetti, but it appears that there's an AI slop in the YouTube video Will Smith shares.
The commenter noticed Telltale signs of the generated AI in a video on Fresh Prince's official YouTube channel, advertising his tour. The video, which appears to be live footage of Smith performing his new song “You Can Make It,” shows fans with distorted faces, hands and other possible evidence that the crowd was generated by Ai.
People did not refrain from presuming generative AI use to create large crowds and emotional fans. “OK, this guy definitely has a humiliating fetish,” the user commented. “There is no other explanation for releasing the AI hateful crowds that support overlooked signs of how he saved their lives.” One shot said, “'You can make it' helped to survive cancer. Fans have shiny, smooth skin with the common cartoonish eyebrows in AI-generated videos.

“Imagine this rich and famous and having to use AI footage of crowds and bot comments on your video,” another user commented. “Tragic, man. You were cool.”

Elsewhere in the video, the sign “lov u fresh prince” will later transform into something that looks like “lov u fr6sh Crince.”
In this clip, the sign reads “lovu fresh prince.”

However, in this clip, shown later in the video, the sign appears to be saying “lov u fr6sh cunting”, and the crowd looks completely different.

It is unknown whether the video is generated by AI. Mashable contacted YouTube and Smith representatives to confirm these claims. Anyway, many viewers are sure it's AI. With advances in AI video generators such as Google's VEO 3 and startups like Kling, Pika and Luma, it is becoming increasingly difficult to convey the difference between real and AI generation. This has created an online effect in which people question the validity of videos and images. To complicate things, the rise in engagement farming accounts has flooded the web with fake attention-grabbing content, also known as AI Slops.
Whether it is explicitly AI or not, the mainstream adoption of AI-generated videos reminds us of a strong response from people.
Backlashes to video generated by AI don't always feel like fans are being fooled. It's also a matter of taste. At a recent concert, rock icon Rod Stewart played a video generated by the late Ozzy Osbourne's AI in heaven along with other dead artists like Tupac and Bob Marley, and one user called it the “new Low.” Journalist Jim Acosta was recently accused of “interviewing” an AI version of a teenager killed in a Parkland shooting, and exploiting the victim's family beyond the ethical line.
Smith's tour continues in the UK, heading to Paris. Should we expect to change more suspicious signs and body parts?
