Cuban alleges Facebook runs AI deepfake scam ads, $16B fraud revenue
What is Cuban: Facebook knowingly runs AI deepfake scam ads; docs say $16B fraud revenue?
Mark Cuban says the ads use an AI-generated copy of his face and voice to sell bogus diabetes cures, and Meta continues to run them on Facebook. Internal documents show the platform earned about $16 billion from fraud-linked ad revenue.
Who it is for
Anyone advertising on or using Facebook should demand tighter ad verification to avoid being complicit in fraud.
