Will Smith is once again under fire — not for the Oscars slap this time, but for a concert clip that fans say used AI to fake an audience. The video, posted on Smith’s official channels, shows an energetic crowd holding signs, but viewers quickly spotted odd details. Some even claimed their likenesses were copied into the footage, while others mocked an AI-generated “Cancer” sign as “absolute clown behavior.”
The controversy comes as Smith continues working to rebuild his reputation following the infamous 2022 Oscars slap. Though he’s apologized repeatedly and framed the incident as a lesson in humility — even addressing it in interviews and his 2025 comeback album Based on a True Story — critics say this AI misstep hurts his efforts at authenticity. For fans, the bigger question is whether Smith’s use of technology undermines the sincerity he’s been striving to project.
