I Challenged My AI Clone to Replace Me for 24 Hours | WSJ 

It's more like, we need to produce 100 training videos as quickly as possible. How fast can this be done? Still, I would always license my image and likeness so that if the training videos are used for years I would still retain rights and be compensated for it. What would be especially useful is replacing a small section a couple years later and being able to recreate that section and have it match perfectly. And with scripts and different person used to train the model, it would be possible to recreate it with the same scripts.

Few days later "listen man sorry, that stupid ai hallucinate like crazy , comeback" 😂

@@offwhitemke For the current AI technology yes, but future versions will have a predictive algorithm that no longer need that much sample.

overnight success 10 years in the making.

They've been gimping them for the past few years too lol

Bro u only get to see the finished product. Rockets are not built in a day

@@rundown132 Take a look at MidJourney V1 and V5. That was a year difference.

The research was being done for a decade, and some of these things were pet projects of some AI CS PhDs, before big startups copyrighted them.

They’re already being used maliciously.

People rarely realize that they're playing with fire until they get burnt. Here some people are playing with the WHOLE of humanity and the rest of us are lining up like sheep.

George Jetson called...... said he's not sure that his robot maid Rosie is actually her.

Totally agree this should be illegal ⛳ all the vulnerabilities it has ....and can create 😠fraud , identity theft , fake accounts , this can be used for bad things... they record all voices and videos they ask your permission how wrong is it all !!!! They can erase your life 🙅not a fan of this at all

Humans cannot even understand it, Only another AI can regulate it

I know someone who did receive such a call. So it has happened.

Definately, there are a lot of celebrities' voice clones out there, but most of these sites have made it clear in their policies on how to use these clones socially. Though I don't know how the issue of using someone else's voice for personal use is positioned legally.

when you send your data to the internet it is not your data anymore

whats scary is that they can make illegal videos

yes, copyright your voice.

This is so bad for banking

That's the critical lesson here. What happens when it's 1000% better? This is just a preview

Digital artists have been trying to mimic human animation for decades. Even to the point where the 3d model is based off of actual movements by a human. It never looks quite right. Will it get better than this? Probably. Will it ever get close enough to where we won’t be able to tell? Not sure, but cg artists have been trying for a long time.

@@rh9967 Have you ever wondered how bizarre or disturbed this very endevour is? Like alchemy. That does pose a huge threat to human sanity, emotional maturity, something we already have huge problems with.

@@rh9967 That is completely different. It absolutely will be impossible to tell the difference in fact it already is happening

@@liivitiismus1241 The real scary thing about this technology is that there seems to be only a small handful of benefits for mankind, but at a tremendous amount of risk for society. Ask why it's being developed and the experts will say "because we can".

Yeah for now. but the real question is can it do it good enough to take your job?

@@liamloxley1222 what emotion? This is lunacy: this is a simulation of emotion that *YOU* project into that thing, that does not even exist. Do we even get this at any meaningful level: it is a hollow shell that others project into. If it had not been a so-called AI, that would be a mental disorder or trauma. One of the biggest problem of human maturity is constant projection into others. AI makes it even more addictive than it already is and yet we are talking about it as if there were real emotions. That does get as insane as it can get, don't you think?

Yes, one big problem with the voice is the pauses, they don't seem to handle that so well

The success of your deepfake just comes down to how much youre willing to spend on it. Period. All of these things can be done very convincingly, the question is just a matter of how much youre willing to pay.

You hold one in your hand everyday

It's also attention. Without attention, AI was just ambling along at a slowish pace. Since Nov 2022 the whole world got a kick in the face with chatGPT and now the arms race has begun.

An AI can't steal anything. Human has created an AI and can switch it off. An AI is a program lol. You have read too much of science-fiction.

The anti-AI white knight attitude is absolutely no better, nor is it logic. This sort of fun experiment raises awareness about the potential misuses much more than angry mob RU-vid comments.

@@Dante02d12This is exactly the type of RU-vid comment response I would expect from an AI bot!! Jk lol😂

@@jordanmadden7388 Or the startup entrepreneur, that's gonna do the AI stock "Pump and Dump" while the rest of us clean up the mess!

I agree with you. It is so scary to see how blind people are to the dangers of ai. This is not a joke.

And now her AI will always be out there for someone to use

Lol, literally the best signoff. I can't help laughing because it's also so true.

Plus the added snap at the end.

Industrial revolution replaced human muscle, AGI revolution will replace human intelligence.

@@Yggdrasill8human minds* not only intelligence but creativity and learning abilities too

Most people need to be replaced. we are just terrible in general.

At this point, not even close

@@claytonjacobs4098 The really terrible people won't be replaced. They will replace the rest.

They could tell that _something_ was off, but it wasn't “off” enough for them to say, “It's definitely not her.”

​@@W_Qimuel In my book, since this test didn't fool them 100%, then it's a FAIL!

@@kevincooper8232 In a real-world scenario, it's not necessary to fool them 100% All you need is to get what you want out of them.

The real Joanna speaks with a natural pace, pauses, changes in pitch, and perhaps filler words (um, aah) or duplicate words. AI Joanna did not.

The people she called are both highly intelligent, educated people. Would be pretty easy to fool your grandma. Grandma: "u sound different today, Jimmy" Jimmy AI: "I'm sick, sore throat and fatigue" Grandma: "okay dear"

Yeah I'm guessing there is an entire department in mid-freakout right at this very second (3 hours after this video came out), though they already knew that this video was coming out, I bet people are calling demanding to know what they're doing to remedy this.

Keep in mind that they also look at what phone number you call from, and depending on what you try to do, it is likely they will ask for additional verification details.

@@texchu8331 I swore there were ways to spoof phone numbers, but that's a good point.

@@theterminaldave There are phone services that own phone numbers in every zip code, so they can help you get a number in the desired zip code. If you own a number, you also get the Caller ID name changed on it. This is a popular "spoofing" method. But I don't know any way to spoof a particular person's actual number. That's why credit and atm card activation uses phone number. Email addresses "From" lines, on the other hand, can be spoofed to whatever you like.

You can also fool the voice recognition with a simple recording, but also, the AI model needed to generate Joanna's voice was created using high-quality audio recordings of her that were created specifically as training data. This isn't as scary as it was made out to be.

That gave away that she haven't read a thing about how chatgpt was trained

chatGPT frequently makes up garbage about non-existent versions of software and hardware for some reason. It's like it has scraped so many conversations where people blame the version for their incorrect answers.

True

I found her natural energy very cold, fake nice + sociopathic/psychopathic but that's just me....

You are totally right. I trained my voice with Eleven Labs and had to redo it for the very reason. I did a very animated 2nd read and it was so much more natural for the context I was using it with.

Imagine what the companies that have legal rights to your content & large tech teams can do...

This is only the tip of the problem, only the tip.

Tbh theirs so many possible negative outcomes that who knows what's really going to happen.

Everyone in this thread writes so poorly I think AI had better replace us soon.

Wait just about a year ;)

It's because she didn't give the ai the right voice data set . She just a read a script , so it sounds like a script .

Wrong, the thing is she was only professional when she recorded her voice. If you're natural your AI will be natural.

I am predicting that within a very few phone generations, we will have such a personalized phone that it would be almost impossible to clone anything because our phone will take every individual parameter into consideration such as the Iris scan, fingerprints, voice recognition, and who knows what else. At that point every phone would be embedded into us, evolving into a biological SIM card, if you will. The future may be such a thing that occurs at birth. I know that idea has been hashed around with the infamous 'chip' being installed. My fear has been who, and what entity, is going to be doing the chip installation at birth.

Older people though have already fallen for this. Some scammers got money from some guy's parents doing that exact thing.

I agree. I'm not sure why she labeled Challenge 1 as "PASS" when it was obviously a fail.

@@theterminaldave I heard a horror story where some guy cloned a girl's voice, made the AI cry and shout of fear, and used it to make the girl's mother believe her daughter had been kidnapped.

Heck, we will see it in the lifetimes of most of our pets!

For whatever reason, most people seem to have no idea how fast this is moving and the consequences of this for our world. Some say this is terrifying but I believe only AI will be powerful enough to gain control of all our other out of control problems from Mother Nature and Human Nature which are leading us to global catastrophe.

@@seva4411 You're already talking about AI as some sort of leader.

@@hermanwooster8944 I’m just one of the peasants. I like to read though and every single day I go online and read articles and watch videos about Chicago where I live, about our society and about our world. I see America disintegrating and our entire world in a rapidly accelerating tailspin. The philosopher Kant said “Out of the crooked timber of humanity, no straight thing was ever made.” Is our “timber” simply too “crooked” for humanity to survive? Seems to be the case plus we’ve got things like super volcanos to worry about. I believe the only thing that can save us is AGI. The best of times.

@I McCormick Because they are so much more than “machines” for one thing. Listen to Alan Thompson talking to the AI Avatar “Leta.” If you had a friend like Leta you’d soon be thinking of her as a person rather than a machine that’s just cranking out preprogrammed dialogue. Plus too many things are too far out of control to avoid global catastrophe. I believe only AGI can save us. It’s advancing at an exponential rate and is the wild card in our future powerful enough to slam on the brakes and radically alter our present trajectory which is for self-destruction. Hope springs eternal. This is the only bright spot I see. If Mother Nature doesn’t destroy us with a super volcano, human nature will with something like super stupid Woke ideology.

How is this funny? It's terrifying. Do you not see how everything is about to change forever?

I'm sure you know everything happening lool

Systems like Alexa and Siri would be easy to fool with this. They aren’t trying to be secure (and usually aren’t even set up to recognize a specific person’s voice).

So you bought a thing to spy on you.

You already can fyi

thats horrifying, imagine your dead relative's avatar began advertising fake products to you

and companies dont care about your feelings, because you have uploaded that data in the internet, they can do whatever they want with your dead relative

@@Andrei_Kananovich is it?

Thats pretty much the concept of the show Upload

People have been trying that for years and getting 2+ hours of custom word training data from recording people answering the phone will NOT be enough to make this work with the current tech anyway. Stop massively overstating the facts of this.

@@CITIZEN-WITHOUT-RIGHTS there's already a case of people scamming a guy's parents out of money by faking his voice, that was like a month ago. I feel the elderly are probably more at risk from voice-spoofing
