I wonder what the legal implications of this alongside similar developments like deepfakes are going to be in the next couple years. We're already having fraudsters impersonate CEOs using Deep learning-aided Voice generation[1] due to just how low the barrier of entry is now. There's already a public implementation of the paper out [2]! [1]: https://www.wsj.com/articles/fraudsters-use-ai-to-mimic-ceos... [2]: https:/…
AI can make decisions, create deep fakes, and now, clone voices. It may be that the next big business opportunity lies in creating 'anti-AI' technology just as it did with antiviruses in the 90's and 2000's
AI that detects AI seems entirely plausible. And like all “anti” measures, is another arms race (and if I put my scifi hat on, is what may lead to AI self-awareness).
The malign applications of this technology greatly outweigh the benign. Discuss.
My personal hell: My mother has dementia and a land line telephone.
Scammers call all the time. All day long. (Although the last few days have been pretty good, I assume somebody somewhere is doing their jobs. The scammers will adapt.) One thing they do is spoof their number to have the same area code and prefix as the one they're calling, so it's like "Oh, is this a neighbor?" or something, but of course it's not. It's an automated machine abusing the telephone network to try to steal money from a little old lady with dementia.
Evil men with robots are attacking my mom. Another one called while I was writing this post!
This is a goddamned sci-fi dystopia.
And now the robo-thieving bastards can imitate my voice!?
I'm going to have to get her one of those satellite-linked walkie-talkies or something. Thank God she doesn't use the internet.
Wow, impressive results! Already a few examples in the comments of what bad actors could do this tech. I wanted to share an example of something good. I lost my dad about 6 years ago after a Stage 4 cancer diagnosis and a 3 month rapid diagnosis. I have some, but not a lot of video content of him from over the years. My mom still misses him terribly so for her 60th birthday I tried to splice together an audio message…

Has anybody tried making an AI that generates 5 seconds of arbitrary speech to feed into this AI?
