About

Middle Finger To Kanye AI Video, also known as the Enough Is Enough Kanye Video, refers to an AI-generated video of famous Jewish celebrities wearing a shirt with a middle finger, a Star of David and the word "Kanye" on it, aimed at rapper Kanye West for his various antisemitism Controversies. The original video was created by an Instagram user in February 2025. Its upload directly followed Kanye West's February 2025 Crashout on Twitter when he tweeted a number of inflammatory posts, many of which praised Adolf Hitler and Nazis. The video also seemed to be a response to Kanye releasing a swastika T-shirt on his Yeezy website during Super Bowl LIX. The AI video spread via reposts across social media sites like TikTok and Twitter / X in the following days. Much of the discourse surrounding the video was about the ethical use of generative AI video tools. Many believed that it was unethical to use celebrities without their consent, believing it would trick many people. The celebrities used in the video include Adam Sandler, Scarlett Johansson, Jerry Seinfeld, David Schwimmer, Mark Zuckerberg, Sacha Baron Cohen and Drake, among others.

Scarlett Johansson's Response

On February 12th, 2025, actress Scarlett Johansson told People[7] that she denounced "the misuse of AI, no matter what its messaging." She further said:

It has been brought to my attention by family members and friends, that an AI-generated video featuring my likeness, in response to an antisemitic view, has been circulating online and gaining traction. I am a Jewish woman who has no tolerance for antisemitism or hate speech of any kind. But I also firmly believe that the potential for hate speech multiplied by A.I. is a far greater threat than any one person who takes accountability for it. We must call out the misuse of AI, no matter its messaging, or we risk losing a hold on reality.

Johansson had previously denounced the use of AI when ChatGPT allegedly cloned her voice for its tech demo of ChatGPT-4o which started a controversy in the AI community.[8]
