The AFL has instructed its gambling partner Sportsbet to cease using AI-generated images and videos of AFL players without their permission, following criticism from the AFL Players’ Association. Sportsbet had created AI videos showing players mimicking famous speeches and TV lines to boost social media engagement, despite upcoming government bans on athletes in gambling ads. The AFL and Sportsbet are now working together to remove the content and establish guidelines for AI use. This incident highlights concerns over player image rights and the need for stricter regulation of AI in gambling promotions.
