The extremely dynamic development of generative artificial intelligence (AI) means that we are constantly learning about its new applications. Now artificial intelligence will appear on American radio.
They cloned the presenter’s voice. Now he will lend it to artificial intelligence
Specifically, it’s about Live 95.5 from Portland, Oregon. The station announced on Twitter that AI Ashley, the virtual equivalent of journalist Ashley Elzinga, will join the group of presenters. The station decided to clone the real Ashley’s voice and assign it to her digital counterpart. To generate content, it will use the RadioGPT tool, which is based on the GPT-4 model from the popular chatbot ChatGPT. AI Ashley is to appear on the air every day from 10 am to 3 pm, i.e. during the real Ashley’s duty, so that the journalist can take care of other duties.
The artificial intelligence will announce the next pieces and talk to the listeners, i.e. it will only take over some of the presenter’s tasks. She will always greet herself as AI Ashley, so that no one will doubt that she is listening to material generated by artificial intelligence. A sample of AI capabilities can be heard in the tweet above. Live 95.5 promised that Ashley Elzinga would continue to work for the station and keep her current salary. The portal also notes that the virtual presenter is not doing as well as the real one and listeners can easily feel the difference without even seeing that they are listening to AI.
