WSOP Removes First Six 'No Limit' Episodes From YouTube Over AI-Fabricated Quotes

WSOP says it pulled the series after learning AI altered player quotes without authorization.

Overview

  • The WSOP said it removed the videos and will re-edit the docuseries to meet its standards, apologizing to those affected.
  • Creator Dustin Iannotti admitted AI-generated lines attributed to Alan Keating were inserted in Episodes 5 and 6, totaling about 10 seconds.
  • Iannotti identified AI lines at 19:18 in Episode 5 and 23:00 in Episode 6 and said they were synthesized from Keating’s interview themes to speed transitions.
  • Keating publicly objected that the show put words in his mouth, and Iannotti acknowledged he should have consulted him and disclosed the technique.
  • Poker figures including Jennifer Tilly, Adam Hendrix, and Daniel Strelitz criticized the practice, as the eight-part series—shot at WSOP Paradise and reported to be funded by GGPoker—awaits re-edited uploads.
