Anthony Bourdain's voice-cloning for new doc called into question: It's 'a slippery slope'
Fox News
Filmmaker Morgan Neville's choice to recreate Anthony Bourdain's voice for a recent documentary using artificial intelligence has been called into question.
That's renewed a debate about the future of voice-cloning technology, not just in the entertainment world but in politics and a fast-growing commercial sector dedicated to transforming text into realistic-sounding human speech. "Unapproved voice cloning is a slippery slope," said Andrew Mason, the founder and CEO of voice generator Descript, in a blog post Friday. "As soon as you get into a world where you’re making subjective judgment calls about whether specific cases can be ethical, it won’t be long before anything goes."More Related News
