Overview

  • On Monday, Zelda Williams posted Instagram Stories asking people to stop sending her AI-generated videos of her late father.
  • She condemned the clips as "gross" and said they turn real lives into "disgusting, over-processed hotdogs."
  • Williams added that such content is not what her father would have wanted and criticized calling AI "the future."
