Manu Rios has now acknowledged that the lewd video of him that circulated on social media over the weekend is not real.
Deepfakes and artificial intelligence (AI)-generated music and videos have become remarkably realistic in recent years. Robert Pattinson spoke out against the “terrifying” deepfakes of him that frequently surface on TikTok earlier this year. Not to add, singers have been critiquing the trend of AI-generated music featuring their own voice imitations lately.
Actor Manu Rios of Elite has now been the target of a fresh deepfake video that is sexually explicit, and he is exposing the maker on the internet.
A video purportedly showing Manu Rios masturbating went viral on the internet on Sunday. Manu, who doesn’t use Twitter very often, took to his own account after seeing the video making the rounds on social media to correct the record. The adored Elite star tweeted, saying, “That video isn’t real. Sometimes the internet can be really strange and frightening.
Then, supporters gathered to support Manu. Someone wrote on Twitter: “the fact that someone decided to OBVIOUSLY deepfake manu in that video just for clicks and attention really drives me insane” .
“I’m so sorry this happened to you,” a second fan wrote. Humans are strange.
that video is fake… internet can be fucking scary and weird sometimes
