BUCHAREST, ROMANIA: Andrew Tate has gained notoriety on social media for his rants on various topics. However, his latest target has raised eyebrows. Tate took aim at an AI influencer - a digital personality that captures substantial attention and financial support from men who willingly spend money on the virtual persona and encourage others to do the same. Tate's criticism of the AI influencer caused a major uproar on social media.
In a previous tweet, Tate had taken a completely different stance, advocating for people to embrace AI and arguing that failure awaits those who do not embrace its potential. The stark contrast in his views has fueled debates about Tate's credibility and intentions.
'Computer trafficking'
Tate recently shared a tweet by user Cernovich, which discussed the presence of an AI influencer account rather than a human one. The tweet indicated that men were willing to go to great lengths to financially support this virtual persona, leading to some concern that individuals who display excessive admiration for such digital personalities may be taken advantage of financially. The tweet likened them to sheep being sheared. In his retweet, Tate labeled this phenomenon as "computer trafficking," implying that the manipulation of vulnerable individuals through these AI influencer relationships may have unethical implications.
'OF girls have AI competition'
Tate's outspoken verdict on the concept of AI influencers, specifically his labeling of it as "computer trafficking," sparked a flurry of responses from Twitter users. One user wrote, "Damn now OF girls have AI competition 🤡" Another said, "Lucy will jump on this bandwagon quickly." A user stated, "I feel sorry for men these days. They are either having to check for an Adams apple, or that a woman isn’t a figment of someone else’s imagination. 🤣" Another comment read, "It never ends. Soon people will be arrested for abusing the feelings of AI because AI lives matter."
