pissed thinking about using peoples voices for ai stuff. like. thats part of them. and yes, liability is a thing, and just saying its for the meme? its horrifying.

god. imagine scammers using the tech. because they Do. imagine internet harrassment campaigns in voices you know.

or even, you know. transphobic bullshit in characters voices.

it starts with memes, then the next thing you know you're creating literal porn with another person's voice

god im afraid for the next american elections since i have no control but america controls so fuckin much

oh god yeah the porn. and its a lot cleaner and less clear then audio splicing.

'but what if they reject you on cameo' listen. respect their boundaries. i was rejected from a character saying trans rights but i wouldnt steal their voice to make it happen.

then find someone else, not that hard

people've had to do that with the real actors for years

exactly. impersonators exist, and you can link to them and its not. argh! my thoughts went to older internet harrassment campaigns and god. goddamn.

whats gonna be worse is when ai video generation becomes more common.

now. i do know there are use cases for ai chat. examples being like diagnosing computer issues. (being able to copy-paste a log into a place and then it spitting out answers which arent astroturfed is good, fuckin. google.) but there are a LOT of bad use cases and more bad actors.

dear humans: "it's just a joke bruh" is not a defensible position in court

EXACTLY.

On top of everything mentioned, there's also the issues where it's hurtful. just the other day erika lindbeck posted saying some new system has utilized samples of billy kametz's voice

imagine how that would fucking feel

god. damn. that is heartless and disgusting. and hearing it and. it is ghoulish.

yeah it made me really angry to hear about it

Also, with AI and impersonation working together it is TOTALLY possible to make something that sounds really close without actually being

this streamer I watch is one of those who uses AI the right way, and he wanted to re-create the voice of the game character of the game he's playing

he used his voice, and then with permission, three of his friends' voices, blended them together and mixed them until he got something he liked

it was a bit different, but the spirit of it was there! it was really cool to watch

sdklgjlsd sorry apparently I have feelings about this, and I'm sick and observing students with nothing to do

NAH ITS FINE. like that sounds fascinating and fun! not the immoral just taking the voice of any person out there.

yeah!

and okay, one thing i love is fake eas scenarios/analog horror-esque stuff, and there are so many talented people creating them, and then. using ai of actual people for them? bleh. bring on impersonations. (esp. of political figures tbh)
