William Shatner, the Star Trek icon, has called for fans to take any social media posts about him "with a grain of salt" regarding his health. He accused a Facebook page, "The Beanstalk Functions Group" of profiting off his likeness through AI-generated photos and news stories about his well-being. The actor posted these posts on Instagram and X, stating that he reported the page to Facebook but the platform has yet to remove the stories. He also mentioned that he had contacted the group's apparent CEO, asking him to remove these stories himself.
