Is it a fake of a recognisable person? What are they endorsing/promoting? I don't see the issue with using AI to generate video ads. Sure, it makes it unreasonably cheap to produce video. But the cost of displaying the ad is the main cost anyway.

The use of the term deepfake implies it was of a recognizable person. That's illegal.

  And if that person has agreed, getting paid for the permission? It would be way more expensive to get $celebrity to have a shooting in a remote location compared to calling them/their agent for a permission. And the result could be comparable.

Yes: Joe Rogan, Donald Trump, and Mr. Beast are the ones I've reported so far. One of them was a pill that supposedly grew your penis, another was for some conspiracy theory site, and one was just a straight up phishing/scam attempt.

Apparently all of these were somehow reviewed by a human and determined to be within Facebooks guidelines.

  Yeah don't these all supposedly go through a review process? How does that go through? A team of facebook engineers could write an AI to at least flag that stuff for manual review in under a day.

    The review process is just checking whether they're a paying customer

    At one point I tested that theory by literally creating a paid Facebook ad for getcryptolocker.com, advertising that getting your data held to ransom was just one click away. I had no problems getting the ad published and Facebook alleges I had a reasonable amount of clicks.
