Purportedly AI-Recreated Clips from Beastie Boys' 'Sabotage' Video Reportedly Appeared in FBI Promotional Video Posted by Kash Patel
2026-05-04
An FBI promotional video posted by Director Kash Patel reportedly used AI-generated clips that closely recreated shots from the Beastie Boys' 1994 "Sabotage" music video directed by Spike Jonze. NPR identified at least six matching clips and quoted experts who said AI likely recreated the footage, possibly from screenshots or short clips. The video promoted FBI anti-fraud work and received roughly half a million views by the next day.

A Spokane Parks and Recreation employee reportedly used a purported generative AI image tool to create a flyer promoting the restored Great Northern Clocktower chimes. The flyer reportedly reproduced elements of artist Matthew Clinard's commercially sold Clocktower sticker and was distributed by the mayor's office without the city-required AI disclosure. After Clinard complained publicly, the city removed the image and apologized, then began considering AI-policy and employee-training reforms.
