Infact verdict: Mixed (58/100).

The claim that most celebrity endorsements of weight loss or health supplements are created by AI without permission is supported by multiple sources. Reports indicate that AI-generated or deepfake ads are prevalent, with many celebrities publicly denouncing these unauthorized uses. The Better Business Bureau and journalists have highlighted this as a widespread scam, although specific technical details of each ad's creation are often not documented. This suggests a significant issue with unauthorized AI use in endorsements, but the exact prevalence ('most') is not definitively proven.
