How do we know that it isn't the real Tom Hanks promoting the dental plan, and the AI saying that he had nothing to do with it?

How do we know it's the real Timecircleline who wrote this comment and not just an AI facsimile?

This comment sounds exactly like how an AI would word it

Because as we all know, A-list celebrities are all too smart and have too much integrity to promote random product for money!

So, just like the real Tom Hanks would never promote dental plans, if you ever see famous celebrities like Matt Damon or Kim Kardashian promote dumb things like cryptocurrency, remember, these are not real people, they are all advertisments made by AI impersonators!
