A podcaster is allegedly advertising a sexual enhancer on Amazon. The nasty thing about it: Behind the video is an AI and not the podcaster himself. Many viewers are shocked.

On TikTok, well-known and controversial podcaster Joe Rogan discussed male libido supplements, specifically a brand called Alpha Grind.
Rogan discusses the usefulness of the product, explaining that it’s listed as one of the best-selling products on Amazon. As he himself says in the video:
If you type Libido Booster for men on Amazon, you will find it at the top. Because men have found that it literally increases size and makes a difference down there.

How are the reactions? Surprised and sometimes very frightened. Many are shocked that the imitation streamer, a so-called deepfake, can hardly be distinguished from the real streamer. And that could become a big problem and a challenge in the future:
AI copies the podcaster and this is not an isolated case
What’s so tricky about that? The big problem is that Joe Rogan never voiced the commercial for the sexual enhancer and probably didn’t agree to promote the said product. According to various statements, behind this is an artificial intelligence that faked his appearance and his voice.
And this is not an isolated case. In the meantime there have been a number of attempts to imitate well-known people. It even goes so far that an AI has even made a comedy series on Twitch, even if it has now been banned for questionable statements.
The well-known streamer Asmongold has already had the “pleasure” of being copied by an AI. And he is quite impressed by what artificial intelligence is now capable of. At least this was an amusing story and not a fake ad:
