What are the penalties for creating AI avatar testimonial or review videos, and what can you legally do?
AI Connection Club webinar: 7pm EST Wednesday November 5th
On YouTube, I see a lot of people teaching how to create fake testimonials and product "reviews" with AI avatars for fake UGC ("User-Generated-Content") ads.
There are companies and Fiverr people who have sprung up offering this as a service. What they don't tell you is that this is actually completely illegal, and the penalties from the FTC are very severe (can reach millions of dollars).
I'll show examples and go over the penalties - which are both for users and enablers - but I'll also give you advice on how to actually use AI avatars safely - what you can do and what you can't do.
