I hear Dead People

Amazon's AI voice replication.......... This can be creepy and potentially scary not to mention potentially down right dangerous.

Last week, we ran a news article entitled, "Amazon's Alexa reads a story in the voice of a child's deceased grandma." In it, ZDNet's Stephanie Condon discussed an Amazon presentation at its re:MARS conference (Amazon's annual confab on topics like machine learning, automation, robotics, and space).

In the presentation, Amazon's Alexa AI Senior VP Rohit Prasad showed a clip of a young boy asking an Echo device, "Alexa, can grandma finish reading me 'The Wizard of Oz'?" The video then showed the Echo reading the book using what Prasad said was the voice of the child's dead grandmother.

What could possibly go wrong?​

What we're talking about is what could happen if bad actors get their hands on this technology and decide to use it for profit... or worse.

You should ask them why every last one of them voted for Biden.

The worst nightmare is the nagging screeching of a Serbian Wench screaming “ Why do you hate me! “…
