In the duration of his 22-year-long career, he has been a part of multiple controversies, both related to football as well as away from the sport. While multiple sources have gone on to report these happenings with their own bias, a recent occurrence showcased them in a new light altogether. Recently, an AI bot was programmed to showcase an hour-long comedy session about the QB’s life.

Interestingly, this AI bot showcased the quarterback’s life using Brady’s own voice. The video caught a lot of attention from fans all over the Internet. Furthermore, as this became popular, Brady himself made some shocking moves against this video and its creators.

The actual special included the AI speaking about incidents like Deflategate and his highly publicized divorce. In the podcast, the AI mentioned his recent single status.

The AI said, “Anybody on the apps right now? I’m recently single and thinking about getting on them, but here’s the problem. I’ve never been on them, I don’t really know what I’m doing. Someone sent me a message on Bumble. ‘You look just like Tom Brady,’ and I said, ‘I am Tom Brady.’ She said, ‘Prove it,’ so I went to her house and let a little air out of all of her footballs.” The AI referenced both of Brady’s most controversial incidents, his divorce as well as the infamous Deflategate in quips.

The kind of content the AI spoke about made it absolutely clear why Brady filed a cease-and-desist against the comedians. However, the Court of public opinion is yet to pass its judgments. It only remains to be seen what kind of reactions this video will garner from the public, especially after Brady’s response to it.
