Recently a video surfaced on the internet depicting Nicki Minaj and Spiderman actor Tom Holland as an unlikely couple in a parody show called "Deep Fake Neighbor Wars."
Minaj did not find the parody to be as hilarious as some. It appears that she may feel that the deep fake of her may have been a little too real for her likening.
HELP!!! What in the AI shapeshifting cloning conspiracy theory is this?!?!! I hope the whole internet get deleted!!! https://t.co/fFx1SDtj8o

LISTEN TO MORROW'S TAKE ON THE MOMENT OF HONESTY SEGMENT:
Whether or not Minaj is truly worried about the accuracy of the deep fake parody is not necessarily clear. Still, people should be concerned with this technology which has the potential to go too far. It can easily lead to some people using this tech to frame someone for a crime they did not commit. Yes, that may sound extreme, but remember, this is just the beginning. The tech has not reached its full potential.
Business Insider reports there has been a rise in AI voice-generated phone scams. In some instances, individuals have been scammed to the point of sending money to someone they don't know while thinking they were helping out a friend or a family member.
So yes, while people may want to mock Minaj for freaking out a bit, she is justified in her concern. And that is Morrow's moment of honesty.
