A YouTuber used AI to create a creepy South Park deepfake (& also deepfakes for The Simpsons, Breaking Bad & more)

If you’ve been checking HipHopCanada over the past year or so, you’ve likely seen at least one or two stories related to the sudden rapid rise of Artifical Intelligence (A.I.).

Multimedia generated by A.I. systems like ChatGPT and DALL-E 2 have regularly made mainstream news headlines, and there’s also systems that are creating music, cloning voices and, deepfake videos, to name a few.

One YouTube user is fusing A.I. with pop culture by creating deepfakes of some popular movies and shows. User demonflyingfox, who currently has 28.7K subscribers, initially posted “South Park as an 80’s Sitcom” and “The Simpsons as an 80’s Sitcom” in January, and has since posted dozens of other interesting videos including “The Lord of the Rings as an 80’s Yakuza Film and a deepfake of Eminem confronting David Guetta.

A few days ago, demonflyingfox posted a new AI-generated video of “South Park as a Liveaction Sitcom.” Check it out below along with some other recent uploads.
