An ad interrupted my video today, it was Tom Hanks in a podcast talking about his prostate. The ad was (not so obviously) AI generated; both an AI clone of his voice and an AI-generated face-swap/ lip replacement. This seemed pretty surprising because it was fairly convincing.

#138Reminds me of the infamous Pepsi logo redesign: https://www.goldennumber.net/wp-content/uploads/pepsi-arnell...
Thanks for the flashback! I forget when this was first leaked, but over the years, this has become my go-to example for premium artisanal marketing bullshit.

This is... genius, or parody? I can't tell.
