Tom Hanks has warned fans to "beware" of a new advert in which he apparently stars. The Hollywood actor revealed that while the "man" in the ad may look like him, it's all just a trick of artificial intelligence. Hanks has previously been vocal with his concerns about AI and how it might make use of famous figures. Now, it seems his concerns were valid. In a post to Instagram, Hank shared a screenshot of the ad, with overlaid text reading: “BEWARE!! There’s a video out there promoting some dental plan with an AI version of me. I have nothing to do with it.” It comes amid the ongoing strikes in Hollywood in which both actors and writers have expressed concerns about AI and its potential impact on their jobs. Speaking on British comedian Adam Buxton’s podcast, recorded on 18 April, days before the Hollywood writers’ strike began, Hanks discussed the use of AI in the industry. “We saw this coming. We saw that there was going to be this ability to take zeros and ones inside a computer and turn it into a face and a character," he explained. "Now that has only grown a billionfold since then, and we see it everywhere. “I can tell you that there [are] discussions going on in all of the guilds, all of the agencies, and all of the legal firms to come up with the legal ramifications of my face and my voice – and everybody else’s – being our intellectual property. “Right now if I wanted to, I could get together and pitch a series of seven movies that would star me in them in which I would be 32 years old from now until kingdom come. Anybody can now recreate themselves at any age they are by way of AI or deepfake technology.” He added that he was concerned his likeness could be used in the future after he’s gone. Hanks said: “I could be hit by a bus tomorrow, and that’s it, but performances can go on and on and on and on. And outside of the understanding that it’s been done with AI or deepfake, there’ll be nothing to tell you that it’s not me and me alone. “And it’s going to have some degree of lifelike quality. That’s certainly an artistic challenge, but it’s also a legal one.” The US writers’ strike ended last week after five months, following an agreement being reached between The Writers Guild of America and the major Hollywood studios. However, the actors’ strike remains ongoing. Sign up to our free Indy100 weekly newsletter Have your say in our news democracy.

Britney Spears has broken her silence after posting a video dancing with knives that sparked concern among fans. "I started playing in the kitchen with knives today", she wrote on social media alongside the clip, before clarifying: "Don’t worry they are NOT real knives!!! Halloween is soon." One person wrote: "Is Britney Spears okay? Does she need help? Yesterday, she posted a video of herself dancing with two large kitchen knives." Another humoured: "Britney Spears is trolling TMZ by dancing with a set of FAKE knives." Now, the 'Gimme More' singer returned to social media with another disclaimer that she was simply copying Shakira's MTV VMA performance. She wrote: "I know I spooked everyone with the last post, but these are fake knives that my team rented from Hand Prop shop in LA. These are not real knives. No one needs to worry or call the police. I’m trying to imitate one of my favorite performers Shakira … a performance I was inspired by !!! Cheers to us bad girls who aren’t afraid to push boundaries and take risks." It comes after TMZ claimed law enforcement sources informed the outlet they had received a call about Spears' welfare following the initial upload. Authorities reportedly spoke with her security team who confirmed she was okay, and did not want to talk to officers. This isn't the first time. Earlier in January, fans also asked the police to check on the 41-year-old. At the time, Spears said she loved her fans "but this time things went a little too far". "The police never entered my home and when they came to my gate they quickly realized there was no issue and left immediately," she wrote. "This felt like I was being gaslit and bullied once the incident made it to the news and being portrayed once again in a poor and unfair light by the media."
