After listening to this, I feel annoyed at the folks in the "AI clones teen girl’s voice in $1M kidnapping scam: ‘I’ve got your daughter’" thread that was on the front page yesterday saying "ppfftt bullshit you'd need to be an idiot to fall for an AI voice" - Guess I'm an idiot. Like it or not, generative media is getting better and better by the day.

Yeah, the voice-gen software has been pretty great lately. The annoyance at folks who wanna ignore that is warranted. Their responses come off very flippant and contrarian.

I think we're going to need some sort of 'real human' proof system where when you record any audio or video you publish the media hash, n-second segment hashes, and signed participants to a ledger/blockchain. You could also build a tamper-proof device that you place in frame that uses a combination of a hard to get-at private hardware key and the local ambiance to produce a signature you encode a as a subtle signal that can be later be used to authenticate the video.

I listened and I think it’s really good. I wonder how much effort went in to polishing the sound. Or did they just feed a script into some voice generator?

The dialogue is excellent but the intonation doesn't sound quite right. The voice is a bit high as if he's tense or something.

Personally I love this new AI voice content booms. My favorite is the AI presidents discussing/playing/rating stuff [1], Attenborough narrating warhammer [2]. While slightly silly, I think in future people might start to take internet way less serious when you can literally make things up. Which I think is a good trend. People getting depressed or so consumed by the internet culture that they loose all interest in th…

Same here! Although some get old quicker than others, I had few moments of laugh.

I like Balenciaga ones: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PL9CIfP547-JFhCFeLeRlA2MX1...

> While slightly silly, I think in future people might start to take internet way less serious when you can literally make things up

I think that’s a very naive view point. Internet is core part of today’s society, like it or not. It’s almost like saying that since we invented home printer, which make it easy to forge money, people will just take money less seriously.

People have always made shit up on the internet. Even prior to Photoshop, the first rule of the net is don't trust anything you read.

>> We might be just going back to the time of early, anonymous internet forums time where most people used to it just didn't take it too seriously Man I was just thinking about it lastnite. Back in the day we were (at some level) respectful to each other in places like IRC and forums, even tho nobody knew each other. And when some idiot started to f- around you had IRCOps and moderators, so it was somewhat easier and…

I don't think these things follow from each other.

Smaller-scale, pre-social-media forums and such in many ways took things more seriously, not less. The poster-to-moderator ratio was WAY lower than somewhere like Facebook or Twitter, and things got handled faster. Internet content was generally not taken too seriously, but internet communities were still serious, and they had better tools for enforcement than they do if they live inside of Twitter.

In a world where someone could spin up a bunch of generative AI bots and target them at a forum to screw with people (whether commercial spam or trolling or just subtle disinformation) that seems a lot harder to maintain.

Yep I nonsarcastically think we need to go back to what we lost with the BBS. Mastodon is a step in this direction but EVERYONE should be an instance.

I thought the first rule was to never read anything and just comment based on the title of the post.
