British Influencer Blames AI After Racist Rant About Thai People

British influencer Daniel Harper, who uses the online name DannyBoy83, has faced widespread criticism after a video emerged showing him making a series of racist and offensive remarks about Thai people. In the recording, Harper repeatedly uses racial slurs and makes derogatory comments about Thai people, including comparisons to monkeys and offensive remarks about poverty and sex work. He also appears to say that he wants to leave Thailand. After the footage spread online, Harper apologised but claimed that parts of the video had been altered or created using artificial intelligence. The original videos have since been removed from the YouTube and TikTok accounts associated with DannyBoy83, although copies continue to circulate online. The controversy has triggered strong criticism on social media, with many viewers questioning the explanation and calling for accountability.
