‘You’re not making art’: Robin Williams’ daughter begs fans to stop ‘disgusting’ AI recreations of her late father

Zelda Williams is once again making it absolutely clear: she does not want to see the AI-generated videos of her late father, Robin Williams, and she wants people to stop sending them to her. The daughter of the legendary actor and comedian recently took to her Instagram story to address the issue directly, telling fans, “Please, just stop sending me AI videos of Dad. Stop believing I wanna see it or that I’ll understand, I don’t and I won’t.”

This isn’t the first time Zelda has spoken out about these kinds of creations; she condemned AI versions of her father back in 2023 during the SAG-AFTRA strike, calling them “personally disturbing.” At that time, she urged people to give living actors a chance to work and stop stealing creative jobs. However, her latest comments go even further, expressing deep frustration not just with the technology, but also with the people sending these “gross” videos.
