Latest It’s customary to leave this note until the middle or end of an article, but Gizmodo reached out to representatives of Zach Braff twice for interviews about his use of AI generally: once on December 15 of last year, and then again yesterday. Both requests were denied. On Thursday, Scrubs star Zach Braff posted a Story to his Instagram account (archived by Megh Wright of Vulture) with the following text: Braff’s Story posts on Thursday were more than a denial. They were an ostensible appeal for decency from fellow showbiz types Max Silvestri, Jenny Slate, Gabe Liedman, and Kumail Nanjiani, who on December 18—three days after Gizmodo had reached out to Braff’s representatives—had tittered to one another in a podcast segment about an unnamed major actor who was rumored to be romantically involved with an AI chatbot. The anonymous actor in question was supposedly so bold about his relationship that he was interacting with the chatbot in front of others.
