Attorneys representing Brady have threatened to sue two comedians over a simulated comedy special that featured an AI-generated Brady telling jokes.

NFL legend Tom Brady is threatening to sue over a comedy special that featured an AI-generated version of the future Hall of Fame quarterback telling stand-up jokes.

Comedians Chad Kultgen and Will Sasso said on their"Dudesy" podcast that they had received a cease-and-desist letter from attorneys representing Brady, demanding the simulated, hour-long special be taken down, or they risk being sued. "It's an impersonation of Tom Brady," Kultgen said on the podcast."It's exactly like what you would see if you watch any stand-up comedy special or any sketch comedy shows where they're doing impersonations of people. ...I don't think we're in any way presenting Mr. Brady at all. It's simply a parody of the idea of Tom Brady doing stand-up."

"This same technology exists on Snapchat, Instagram story filters, where you can take somebody else's face, put it over your own, you can now vocally make anyone sound like anything," Kultgen said."This is simply how things are now."
