Robin Williams' Daughter Zelda Slams 'Delusional' AI Videos of Late Star: 'Let Him Rest!'
She said the synthetic clips misuse his voice and likeness and told people to stop sending her AI content.
- Zelda Williams urged fans on Monday to stop sharing AI-generated videos of her late father, Robin Williams, after a fake 'Private Video' surfaced showing the comedian discussing conspiracy theories.
- In recent years, Robin Williams' likeness has become a popular target for AI recreation as users continue creating and sharing augmented videos of the late actor, prompting the family's repeated interventions.
- Describing the clip as 'robotic and terrible,' Zelda criticized the fake video and demanded creators 'Leave him out of your delusional bullshit and let him rest,' noting the voice was clearly synthetic.
- Last month, Zelda and brothers Zak and Cody Williams revived their father's official Instagram account to create a 'safe, trusted place' and combat the 'rampant AI abuse' of his voice and likeness.
- The Oscar-winning actor, who died in 2014 at age 63, has increasingly become a target for synthetic recreation, with his family confronting material portraying him saying things he never actually said.
