Is this a real recording, or AI?

AI is being used to scam people out of money. One financial manager in Hong Kong was scammed out of 26 million dollars by way of a video conference replicating his CFO's face and voice. Video can be altered in any way a scammer chooses. In the near future the question everyone will be asking is "is that real?". AI generated videos of political candidates and celebrities will circulate causing confusion. Talk about "fake news" and fact checking.
Porn and accusations of any kind can be generated by way of video and voice of your loved ones to extort $$. It has already happened.
Our habit and dependence on electronic, non-personal communication ie. texting, email, video conferencing has made it so easy to scam unsuspecting people, especially the old naive people. Unless you interface with people in person don't trust any video you see

If you're reading about it , you're late.

At what point will we not be able to trust what we see online? A politician saying something almost what he has said before, but with just a little difference that changes the meaning, or a brain dead president that can't put an intelligible sentence together, but all of a sudden makes a rousing speech.

Skynet to the exponential power of Wargames....

From what I've been hearing. AI already is doing some amazing "positive" things. Such as beating fighter pilots in dogfights every time. I heard a radiologist discussing AI being used to review xrays. Which I could see happening, since it's looking for anomalies. It can have it's uses. It could also wipe us all out.

No one knows what will happen with AI, including the very people working every day to make it happen.

We were using it in the oil and gas industry. It was actually an .NET windows but ran it on a cray xc40 under MONO. It inferenced the best time to pull the trigger on purchasing oil tankers of crude based on global events and markets. It was a 10 min decision on when to purchase gazzmillions of dollars of oil. We got an internal company award for that but yeah it's all over and this thing we worked on was back in 2017...

Read about Blake Lemoine. Google AI software engineer who was fired for claiming their chatbot had gone sentinent. This is as serious as the development of the nuclear bomb.

[Matt]

That's a bunch of BS. Why is he working at mimio doing the same thing lol. More to the story like everything else.

Read about Open AI and the shake up there with their board Sam Altman, Ilya Sutskever, Jacob Pachoki. You can use your imagination to wonder why people cant agree with the direction of a technology as lucrative but dangerous as this.

On the bright side….it might give everyone an avenue to not pay lawyers gobs of money for something that is nothing more than filling out a promulgated form with a degree of efficiency.

Right make a website put in your case details anonymously get a return of attys with percentages and cost to beat said case based off of previous history so you aren't overpaying
Someone can have that idea.

I actually think the interesting thing about what is said in the video is that Obamanation is talking about controlling the population, juxtaposed to the potential that the video may be AI produced. If AI was used to produce the video, it would be revealing as to how AI could be used to control the population.

I'm sure there are some fantastic things that will be possible with AI; however, like anything else, sinister people will find a way to use it to their advantage to create havoc.

[Trouthunter]

I'm reminded of the Pandora's Box tale.

I’m guessing this is inline with Oturd’s ideology and that he has probably said such thing to his inner circle. I’d also bet that this is 100% ai and is a totally fake video.

[CSN]

I agree with everything you said, but I'm less confident that it's a fake video.
