"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

'I Loved That AI:' Judge Moved by AI-Generated Avatar of Man Killed in Road Rage Incident (www.404media.co)

An AI avatar made to look and sound like the likeness of a man who was killed in a road rage incident addressed the court and the man who killed him: “To Gabriel Horcasitas, the man who shot me, it is a shame we encountered each other that day in those circumstances,” the AI avatar of Christopher Pelkey said. “In another life we probably could have been friends. I believe in forgiveness and a God who forgives. I still do.”

It was the first time the AI avatar of a victim—in this case, a dead man—has ever addressed a court, and it raises many questions about the use of this type of technology in future court proceedings.

Yeah ... that is not OK.

"And I would like to amend my will to add the prosecutor's kid as the beneficiary. And thank you, Judge, and might I add that you make that gavel look very powerful!"

Simpson's did it. The lawyer dubbed his voice onto a video will.

According to an article (dunno if it's this one, didn't click lol) the victim's sister wrote it and they just used Ai for his voice and likeness.

Still inappropriate.
