TD Jakes Subpoenas Google Over Diddy Claims on Youtube


Last year mega church pastor, Bishop TD Jakes, was forced to publicly deny claims he'd been caught on tape partying with Bad Boy Entertainment CEO, Sean 'Diddy' Combs, after rumors spread online [click here if you missed that]. 

Now Bishop Jakes intends to get to the bottom of it...

A lawyer representing celebrity pastor Bishop T.D. Jakes is going to new lengths to try to combat artificial intelligence-generated misinformation posted about his client on YouTube, saying the platform has failed to effectively uphold its own policies.
On Thursday, Dustin Pusch, an attorney for Jakes, filed a motion in the Northern District of California seeking to subpoena Google, YouTube’s parent company, to share information concerning the identities of four YouTube account holders. They are purportedly located in Pakistan, South Africa, the Philippines and Kenya, according to the accounts’ “About” sections on YouTube.
The motion said these accounts made false claims about Jakes, citing previous NBC News reporting about AI-generated misinformation on YouTube, and added that elements of the videos were likely created with AI tools, including images used in thumbnails and voice-overs. YouTube videos utilizing AI have been popular for years, and YouTube recently introduced AI initiatives to dramatically increase the amount of AI-generated content and material on the platform.
But AI elements have also been used to spread misinformation on videos that have the potential to make a large profit for both YouTube and their creators, by monetizing them with ads. The motion filed by Jakes’ lawyer is a significant development in efforts to combat viral AI-generated misinformation on the platform, being one of the first of its kind attempting to unmask the creators behind it. In previous reporting, a YouTube creator behind similar content previously confirmed their use of AI tools to NBC News, and AI detection experts found a high likelihood of similar content involving AI-generated images and audio.
YouTube didn't immediately respond to a request for comment.

^I AGREE WITH THE SABBATICAL PART. TDJ COULD JUST TELLHIS CONGREGATION THAT HE'S RESTING, LIKE PASTOR WINANS HAD SAT DOWN FOR AT LEAST 6 WEEKS AFTER HE FELL WHILE OTHER MINISTERS PREACHED IN HIS STEAD.
TDJ SHOULD DO THE SAME.

Or,@10:20 p.m., TDJ knows it won't be long until he's officially implicated in some illegal activities due to his association w/ an already jailed Sean Combs.
