'A part of me was stolen': Actors say AI copied their faces, voices and performances without consent

Actors Ashley BeLoat and Brittany Marsicek said AI copied their faces, voices and performances without consent in micro dramas on MoboReels.

BeLoat's AI remake of 'Hate the Way I Love You' appeared on the same app months after the original, with an AI actress copying her movements and sounding similar.

Marsicek's AI remake of 'Ex-Husband, Step Aside, Lady Boss Returns' had the AI character behave and sound like her but look different.

BeLoat contacted MoboReels requesting removal or compensation but received no response.

Actors fear their performances may train AI versions that replace them, as contracts lacked AI protections and only mentioned broad editing rights.
