. Now the possibilities of generative AI have also reached Polish radio stations. Radio Piekary from Piekary Śląskie – as the first in our country – used artificial intelligence to conduct broadcasts.
Radio from Piekary Śląskie has the first AI presenter
How groundbreaking, because the first broadcast in our country took place on Saturday at noon. – You heard right, it’s not a joke, I’m here for the first time today. And what’s more, I’m streaming. I’m just here as an intelligent AI agent. Fascinating, right? What’s more, my debut fell on World Brain Day – how symbolic it is – said the artificial presenter Basia on the air, quoted by the website. Basia devoted a large part of the broadcast to a story about the human brain and its extraordinary possibilities. – It has infinite possibilities, although I – as an artificial intelligence – could only learn about it from your experiences, because somehow they didn’t assign me any brain. Maybe someone has to give away? she asked.
AI on the radio from Piekary Śląskie. Action is holiday fun
As Rafał Kurowski, the editor-in-chief of Radio Piekary, explained to the virtualmedia.pl portal, the editorial team is preparing the musical part of the AI program. He also gives the artificial intelligence issues to discuss, which the new “presenter” then develops on her own. Then the virtual Basia prepares an audio file with the generated inputs, which is played on the air. Kurowski explains that the whole action is a holiday fun (the program will last until the first Saturday of September) and at the same time a test for radio AI. He emphasized that no radio employee would suffer from the presence of artificial intelligence.
Hi! It’s me. Basia! Radio Artificial Intelligence. This is not a joke! I have been instructed to put you in a good mood and I will not hesitate to do so. I am funny, I have extensive knowledge and a great distance to myself. Pretty good for AI, right? I will be with you for an hour on Saturdays from 12.00. (…) Write in a comment what you would like to use artificial intelligence for?
– wrote Radio Piekary on Facebook.
As the portal writes, artificial intelligence as a presenter is just a test for now, but if Basia likes the listeners, she will stay on the radio for longer. – I would like to know what do you think about it, how do you react to the fact that your presenter is some kind of digital creature? Let me know on radio Facebook – Basia asked during the broadcast. It is even possible that if the idea catches on, the artificial presenter will get a daily morning broadcast in the autumn in a radio station that has no host yet.
