T.D. Jakes Blames AI Bots for Viral Diddy Rumors

Bishop T.D. Jakes Blasts Online Rumors About Him as 'Lies'

How exactly did T.D. Jakes end up in rumors of being involved in Diddy’s freak-offs? If you ask him, it was AI bots. Speaking with John Hope Bryant, Bishop Jakes recalled the wild moment online.

“When the [rumors] first broke out, it was 44,000 bots that were released on me,” Jakes said. “98% of them were all artificial intelligence-generated.”

He added, “If there were anything there, the FBI would have been in it. It’s like when I had my health scare—within seconds, it was all over the world, you wouldn’t have to find it on Instagram, you wouldn’t have to find it on YouTube. You would find it on the 6 o’clock news.”
