Kalshi Admits That It Took a Random Guy's Video and Used AI to Make Him the Host of an Ad, Changing His Race in the Process

Kalshi, a gambling platform, is under fire after YouTuber Elliott Choy discovered that one of his videos was used in an AI-generated ad that not only stole his content but also changed his race, turning him into a white person. The ad was served on YouTube and was created without his consent. NPR correspondent Bobby Allyn confirmed the ad's existence; Kalshi claimed it is old and that they no longer use AI-generated ads, and are reviewing their relationship with the agency responsible. The incident highlights growing concerns over AI deepfakes and content theft, especially as Kalshi has previously experimented with AI marketing but now claims to be moving toward human-created ads.
