Coworker making AI video of us

(Anonymous) 2026-01-20 12:12 am (UTC)(link)
Today my coworker delightedly showed all of us how she made this AI video clip of a bunch of us doing this stupid dance. I was kind of infuriated? Don't use my photos for this shit??? And she couldn't get why I and a few others were mad. It was like half of the people said what's the big deal, who cares, and the other half of us weren't happy with it. But I'm genuinely stewing over it still, I'm irrationally angry over this tbh.

That's not irrational. I don't think all forms of AI are bad, but deepfakes freak me out even if it's "just" a meme. I don't want photos of myself fed into a dataset for people to use for amusement, I'm not a fictional character.

Honestly? I’d report them to HR.

This-- personally I think you are very rationally upset about your image being used this way and you're not alone in it! The plain fact of the thing is that this is a huge overstep for a coworker to make without gaining your consent-- certainly they would have to do so if they wanted an actual video of you. Their intentions may be entirely pure but if they are making multiple people at work uncomfortable then it's an appropriate place for HR to step in before that discomfort can escalate or be handled badly in the moment the next time.

It's understandable - not only is it AI but none of you gave consent for your image to be used. HR should hear about this.

I would feel the same way, and I don't think it's irrational. I would definitely go to HR, I don't think this should become a normal thing to do.

That's seriously annoying at best, especially because a LOT of people don't get why people dislike AI. To them, it's just a dumb toy, and they don't understand why it's upsetting. Good luck if you end up taking this to HR.

OP

(Anonymous) 2026-01-20 03:45 am (UTC)(link)
Thanks for all the comments. I am so glad of the reassurance that I'm NOT just overreacting or being a problem. I have problems with AI, and I am really resentful that my photos have now been shared who knows where with who knows who, and also it's just kind of humiliating to have this stupid video of me (and others) doing this stupid dance, that I would never do IRL. Like, what the fuck??? I am hesitant to take it to HR because I don't want to be the ~problem~ person who is fussing, but I'm still mad. It's been hours now and I'm not over it at all.

A lot of people were like, who cares, no one cares about YOUR photos, get over yourself, it's not hurting anything, etc etc. Um well actually I care, it's just really weird and uncomfortable. I get that a lot of people think it's like a cute/fun parlor trick but it does not feel good.

My department wanted to do AI video for a NY party with deep fakes. I managed to talk them out. But I fucking hate that EVERYONE in my team are pro AI. I feel like I am loosing my mind

That sucks so much! I would take it to HR to stop her ever thinking that this kind of shit is okay. Lucky it's just a stupid dance clip but people do make... other kind of videos without consent too.
