A video featuring Jewish celebrities wearing T-shirts with a raised middle finger and the word “Kanye” has gone viral on social media. The video was created using generative AI technology by Israeli entrepreneur Ori Bejerano and was released in response to rapper Kanye West’s recent antisemitic actions. The celebrities in the video were not actually involved in the project.
The video calls for action against antisemitism and criticizes West for his offensive behavior. It does not specifically endorse any organization’s efforts to combat antisemitism but tags the accounts of pro-Israel influencers and organizations. Some of the celebrities shown in the video, such as David Schwimmer, have been vocal in opposing antisemitism, while others like Adam Sandler have not been as outspoken.
The video features a techno version of “Hava Nagila” with celebrities like Steven Spielberg, Woody Allen, and Scarlett Johansson. The video ends with a message urging viewers to join the fight against antisemitism. Bejerano’s previous AI videos have targeted Israel’s far-right ministers and even offered an Israeli version of “The Simpsons.”
While some celebrities shown in the video may have supported it, others like Scarlett Johansson have previously taken legal action to block the use of their AI-generated likeness. The video has sparked discussion about using AI technology for creative purposes and ethical considerations about labeling such content. It also highlights the growing use of generative AI in creating content that addresses social and political issues.
