Robert Redford’s Daughter Says No Funeral Has Been Held Yet, Speaks Out Against Fake AI Tributes

Robert Redford’s daughter is correcting the spread of misinformation about the legendary actor’s funeral arrangements following his death amid fake AI tributes.

In a statement posted to Instagram on Thursday, November 21, Amy Radford, 55, spoke out against the fake funerals and tributes that recently surfaced online.

“There are multiple AI versions of funerals, obituaries, and quotes from my family members that are fabricated,” Amy wrote. “The presentation of my dad, who doesn’t say anything outright, and the portrayal of my family that doesn’t present anyone in a positive light are extra challenging during a difficult time.”

“We’re grieving together and we’re all supporting each other,” he said.
