Jennifer Aniston is breaking her long-overdue silence over growing concerns about artificial intelligence after alleged fake beach snaps of her made rounds on the internet.

In a conversation with Harper’s Bazaar, the Friends alum revealed that she has been sending fake images of herself to her legal team, as she has been constantly receiving fabricated images.

"I catch things all the time, or friends send me things saying, 'I don't think this is you', or 'I don't think you're advertising this', and I'll send it to my lawyers so they can do a cease-and-desist,” she said with frustration.

Aniston labelled the rampant growth of Artificial Intelligence as a “runaway train.”

She also specifically mentioned the risks young people face online, criticizing the lack of safety and security protocols on social media and calling out billionaires who profit from it.

"I'm sure the guys who came up with it thought it was a great idea and, yeah, congratulations on your billions, but it has taken down a huge portion of humanity," the We’re the Millers actress commented.

This comes after Aniston recently told The Sun that she’s learned about the deepfake versions of herself promoting weight loss and collagen supplements products.

“It's a very unsettling thing that's happening in the world with AI,” she noted.

On the professional front, Aniston’s television series, The Morning Show premiered September 17, on Apple TV+.
