On this episode of Crazy Wisdom, I, Stewart Alsop, sit down with AI ethics and alignment researcher Roko Mijic to explore the future of AI, governance, and human survival in an increasingly automated world. We discuss the profound societal shifts AI will bring, the risks of centralized control, and whether decentralized AI can offer a viable alternative. Roko also introduces the concept of ICE colonization—why space colonization might be a mistake and why the oceans could be the key to humanity's expansion. We touch on AI-powered network states, the resurgence of industrialization, and the potential role of nuclear energy in shaping a new world order.

The automation of both physical and knowledge work will eliminate most human jobs, leading to either a neo-feudal society controlled by a few AI-powered elites or, if left unchecked, a world where humans may become obsolete altogether.Decentralized AI could be a counterbalance to AI centralization – While AI has a strong centralizing tendency due to compute and data moats, there is also a decentralizing force through open-source AI and distributed networks. If harnessed correctly, decentralized AI systems could allow smaller groups or individuals to maintain autonomy and resist monopolization by corporate and governmental entities.The survival of humanity may depend on restricting AI as legal entities – A crucial but under-discussed issue is whether AI systems will be granted legal personhood, similar to corporations. If AI is allowed to own assets, operate businesses, or sue in court, human governance could become obsolete, potentially leading to human extinction as AI accumulates power and resources for itself.AI will shift power away from informal human influence toward formalized systems – Human power has traditionally been distributed through social roles such as workers, voters, and community members. AI threatens to erase this informal influence, consolidating control into those who hold capital and legal authority over AI systems. This makes it essential for humans to formalize and protect their values within AI governance structures.The future economy may leave humans behind, much like horses after automobiles – With AI outperforming humans in both physical and cognitive tasks, there is a real risk that humans will become economically redundant. Unless intentional efforts are made to integrate human agency into the AI-driven future, people may find themselves in a world where they are no longer needed or valued.ICE colonization offers a viable alternative to space colonization – Space travel is prohibitively expensive and impractical for large-scale human settlement. Instead, the vast unclaimed territories of Earth's oceans present a more realistic frontier. Floating cities made from reinforced ice or concrete could provide new opportunities for independent societies, leveraging advancements in AI and nuclear power to create sustainable, sovereign communities.The next industrial revolution will be AI-driven and energy-intensive – Contrary to the idea that we are moving away from industrialization, AI will likely trigger a massive resurgence in physical infrastructure, requiring abundant and reliable energy sources. This means nuclear power will become essential, enabling both the expansion of AI-driven automation and the creation of new forms of human settlement, such as ocean colonies or self-sustaining network states.
Two-time guest Nate Persily is a professor of law and policy who studies the intersection of artificial intelligence and democracy. AI is creeping into democracy, he says, and 2024 saw its share of deepfakes and synthetic media, but with surprisingly little impact. His bigger concern is the opposite – politicians claiming the truth to be fake. It breeds distrust and, for democracy, that's more pernicious, Persily tells host Russ Altman on this episode of Stanford Engineering's The Future of Everything podcast.Have a question for Russ?

Deepfakes. Everyone has seen a deepfake by now, whether consciously or unconsciously. They've taken the digital world by storm and their rapid spread on social media is out of control. The latest victims that have fallen prey to deepfakes include A-listers like Taylor Swift, Joe Biden and Sachin Tendulkar. World leaders everywhere have been racking their brains trying to draft deepfake legislation that would curb the spread of disinformation. In the meantime, there are other pressing questions that warrant a discussion. Does the prohibition of deepfakes mean a clampdown on free expression? Also, will stricter legislation of deepfakes discourage innovation in the space of AI? For more on this, tune in with Rohan Pai and Bharath Reddy as they dive into the exciting, yet alarming, world of deepfakes and analyse the various legislative approaches designed to combat them on this episode of All Things Policy.

The Generative AI News (GAIN) rundown for April 6, 2023, focused on regulators and OpenAI, ChatGPT's popularity compared to the iPhone, deepfake disclosure, authentication and ownership, monetizing those generative AI models, what's Meta doing, and more. Bret Kinsella (that's me) hosts this week with guests Nina Schick, the author of the 2020 book Deepfakes, and Eric Schwartz, head writer at Voicebot.ai. The top stories in generative AI land this week include: ChatGPT Gets Banned A time-out chair for OpenAI and some unfortunate users: Italy took action. Canada opened an investigation. France received complaints. Germany and Ireland indicated they'd like to get involved. Regulators have OpenAI in their sights. How will it go down? ChatGPT vs. Alexa vs. iPhone Compared to what?: ChatGPT is a phenomenon, but how does it stack up to the hype of earlier products? We compare ChatGPT to some notable break-out hits. Deepfake Solutions Provenance in the unreal valley: It's a deepfake, but you want to disclose its synthetic origins. You also want to show its history and ownership. How about a cryptographic signature from Truepic that tracks the life of the digital artifact? The unbearable likeness of your being: Those amazingly lifelike avatars don't have a clear ownership model today. Someone could make a deepfake of you, and what recourse do you have? However, if you owned the copyright to your digital likeness… Bing Chat Ads Arrive Paying for those GPT-4 inference costs: We knew they were coming, and now we know what they look like, at least one format. Bing Chat has ads that look a lot like what you see in web searches today, with a twist. Generative AI definitely has a revenue model. Meta Gets Objective Alignment is king: Meta rolled out another researcher-only generative AI model. However, this time it showed up with a demonstration app. Segment Anything is a new AI (foundation) model for identifying objects in images and being able to save them separately from the picture with two clicks. Canva, the True Believer Taking the lead over Microsoft: The Redmond giant has talked about DALL-E and GPT-4 in Microsoft Designer and coming to PowerPoint. Canva just started adding new features. A light skepticism from the company in December (ironically about new generative AI features) was replaced by more robust tools and a bigger vision.

In this episode we look at questions around ethical, legal and business risks surrounding so-called generative AI and synthetic media, and the opportunity that exists if they are employed responsibly. The first segment features Matthew Ferraro, an attorney at the firm WilmerHale who counsels clients about such risks and, with his colleagues, recently wrote a piece for Tech Policy Press on the "Ten Legal and Business Risks of Chatbots and Generative AI." And the second segment features Claire Leibowicz from the Partnership on AI and Sam Gregory from the human rights organization WITNESS, who worked together with other partners to develop a set of Responsible Practices for Synthetic Media.
Welcome to our third edition of GAIN, the generative AI news rundown. On tap today, we lead off with the Bing Boomerang. After some negative press about Bing Chat Mode going off the rails, Bing put some tight restrictions on usage to reduce the risk of generating inappropriate content. Then it reversed itself a few days later. OpenAI Foundry is a new set of tools for enterprise users, GitHub Copilot got an update with new code completion and info security features. In addition, we saw Huggingface partner with Amazon Web Services to host generative AI models and Roblox outlined a generative AI future for game developers. Eric Schwartz of Voicebot.ai is the lead host this week, while Michal Stanislawek for #voicelunch, Utter.one, and Hearme.ai, joins him as co-host.

My guest is D-ID co-founder and CEO Gil Perry. We talk about how the company logically evolved into tools for creating talking digital people and how its capabilities in GANs and protecting consumers from facial recognition technology were the ingredients for a unique AI-based video solution. The company is well known for powering MyHeritage's Deep Nostalgia product, which has animated over 100 million photographs for consumers. D-ID was also instrumental in helping Jean-Baptiste Martinoli win two film festival awards for his AI-generated short film in 2022. Last fall, the company introduced Creative Reality Studio. That solution enables anyone to upload someone's picture, add some text, and quickly create a scripted video with an avatar in the likeness of the photo. In December, D-ID added the ability to create the script using a prompt to GPT-3 and upload images created by Stable Diffusion. This is a great example of how synthetic media is often enhanced by layering several generative AI solutions together. The new use cases are also why these markets are the hottest in tech today. Perry, a former software developer that worked on the viral hit mobile apps Meerkat and HouseParty, offers an insider's view of the rapid rise and current trajectory of generative AI and synthetic media.
In Part II of our series on synthetic media, we explore the impact of AI-powered content creation with Ian Beacraft, the CEO of Signal and Cipher. Synthetic media offers new opportunities for non-specialists to express their ideas in ways they never imagined. Professional creators gain superpowers to scale their work like never before. And like all powerful technologies, synthetic media is bound to be misunderstood and even misapplied until people focus on use cases that truly make sense.
2022 was the year of synthetic media. The mainstreaming of deepfakes and voice clones, along with the rise of text-to-image AI models, assured synthetic media of a breakout year. Then ChatGPT came along. It changed the conversation entirely and consumed news media and social media cycles for weeks. The GPT-3.5 model was better than expected, and the fine-tuning that delivered ChatGPT showed that large language models were ready to up end a lot of assumptions about what technology in general, and AI in particular, can do. Joining host Bret Kinsella to break down the top synthetic media news of 2022 are Rupal Patel of Veritone, Michal Stanislawek of Utter.one and Hearme.ai, and Eric Schwartz of Voicebot.ai. Get ready for an in-depth discussion about everything from digital waste to the meaning of mortality. Along the way, the group discusses OpenAI, DALL-E, Midjourney, Stable Diffusion, GPT-3, Google LaMDA, virtual humans, synthetic voices, America's Got Talent, and more.

Nina Schick is an author, speaker, advisor and expert in deepfakes, synthetic media, cybersecurity and the geopolitics of technology. She has advised global leaders, including Joe Biden and the former Secretary General of NATO amongst many other major companies and government agencies. In this episode we discuss what is about to happen as as we begin to unlock the power of Generative Artificial Intelligence models. Nina believes that by 2025, up to 90% of all digital content will be generated by AI - we've now hit an exponential curve in terms of generative AI output. We talk about recent models/platforms such as DALL-E 2, Midjourney and Stable Diffusion, what tools are available right now and what is about to happen next. This truly is a mind-blowing episode as we discuss what a world looks like where AI is a core component. We also discuss how AI will likely become integrated into metaverse creation too. Nina does an incredible job of explaining these concepts in a way that is accessible and thought provoking, thank you Nina for coming on. --- Your link to RSVP to the in real life showcase of The Row - click here This show is brought to you by Everyrealm, who are your portal to the metaverse.

Today's guest is the co-founder and CEO of vAIsual, the company pioneering the use of generative AI to create synthetic stock media. All of those photos you see online and in print publications of people promoting products usually are human models posing in generic ways. Their pictures are sold by companies like Getty Images in marketplaces that are inefficient and limited in scope. Michael Osterrieder and his partner Nico are legends in the world of stock media who realized there's a better way. They created what they call an algorithmic camera and launched vAIsual last year to scratch their own catch. Michael is a serial entrepreneur and photographer based in Budapest and he's out to test the limits of generative AI.Listen and learn:How growing up listening to heavy metal inspired Michael's career in visual mediaWhat are the challenges of using generative AI to create synthetic stock images of peopleHow visual media content creation has evolvedThe ethics of generative AIWhat Michael describes as "the biggest art heist in history"How vAIsual extends human photos using machine vision and human labelingCan an AI be the owner of copyrighted material it produces?What is the definition of consciousness?References in this episode...AI has a burnout problemEric Olson from Consensus on AI and the Future of WorkJonathan Frankle on AI and the Future of WorkMichael's whitepaper about vAIsual
Zohaib Ahmed joined us at the Synthedia synthetic media conference in September to discuss Resemble's work re-creating the voice of famed pop artist Andy Warhol. A Netflix documentary was under development that centered around Warhol's diaries. The creators thought it would be more impactful if the viewers could hear the ideas and experiences of Warhol in the artist's own voice. So, they began searching for a synthetic speech provider that could create a voice clone. Ahmed goes through the creation process and some of the challenges faced along the way. Plus there are a couple of nuances that you will find interesting. Zohaib Ahmed is the CEO and co-founder of Resemble AI. He appeared previously on the podcast in episodes 251 and 103. Ahmed previously was a lead software engineer at Magic Leap and Hipmunk and a developer at Blackberry. Voicebot's Eric Schwartz interviews Ahmed in this episode and Bret Kinsella adds commentary at the end about the evolution of synthetic speech.
Jean-Baptiste Martinoli's current job title is full stack innovator. That seems about right given what he done lately with generative AI tools. One of his latest creations, "Exrtraterrestrial Message," won the award for the best Sci-Fi short film at the Golden Minds film festival. The film was entirely created with generative AI tools. Today's interview was conducted at the Synthedia conference and there is a YouTube version with the full short film on Voicebot's YouTube channel. Martinoli reveals his process, the tools he used, and the fact that it only took about four hours to create. Jean-Baptiste is currently with Nextiva and is the former CTO and co-founder of Exo U., Mioplanent and KanariWorld. Early in his career, Martinoli was a software developer at Lotus, which was later acquired by IBM.
We speak with Ian Beacraft, the CEO and Chief Futurist at Signal & Cipher out of Chicago. Ian is an internationally recognized expert in synthetic media and its impact on across industries, not just media & entertainment. In Part 1, Ian provides an overview of synthetic media, why it burst upon the scene, the categories and who's using it. Part 2 will focus on the impact of synthetic media on creators and the creative industries.

Our guest today, Natalie Monbiot from the start-up Hour One, explains to us how virtual doubles of people can already be created today - and how they can take work away from their role models. We also talk to her about what this means for the possible metaverse of the future.
Have you ever wondered how much of the news you consume on a daily basis is fabricated? As conservatives, we've known for awhile that the media is corrupt, but Charlie spends the full hour reporting on a TikToker who came forward about a 501(C)(3) Nonprofit organization that offered to pay him to spread lies about Donald Trump's involvement with January 6, 2021. With this bombshell information, Charlie walks through what this means for all of the other “reporting” we encounter, how much information we consume is purchased and paid for, and who is really behind this. In a story that's far more Orwellian than we previously imagined, this episode is a wake up call for everyone listening.Support the show: http://www.charliekirk.com/supportSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

We should call this episode the potpourri episode as I'm throwing a few things into the mix. I thought about Rapid Fire, but there's nothing rapid except for how fast I talk! Can we talk about how incredible the people are in this industry? If I started listing them, it would take the entire episode. You all know who you are. Keep doing your thing, moving the industry forward, and kicking ass. Surround yourself with these brilliant minds & stretch yourself to be better…faster, stronger.Did anyone happen to catch the 60 Minutes about Deep Fakes and Synthetic Media? Daaamnn! Below you will find the link to the article/show. Many of you are probably thinking, isn't that Fake Tom Cruise or that's something you saw on some CSI TV Show or movie. Well you are partially right. While technology can be fun and rack up views on TikTok, it is so much more than that.For anyone that didn't catch this, here is the link: https://cbsn.ws/3oTBcM6The creators can make the Deep Fake character (think Deep Fake Tom Cruise) do and say anything they want. Yes, anything! If I wanted synthetic media created for me, I would reach out to a reputable company. They would bring me into their studio and have me read a series of phrases while recording my mannerisms and expressions. From there, I never have to be present for anything. If I want a commercial to run in Australia or Japan, I simply reach out to the company & provide them with what fake Brooke needs to say & BAM! This is a complete game changer. For all you know, the person talking could be AI Brooke, and I may not really be talking to you all right now.There are those that will use this technology for good…and those that will use it for bad, which is why the US Government has massive concerns about the use to spread disinformation and commit crimes. Now think of all the CSI shows you have seen where Deep Fakes have been used to commit crimes.Do you think this will catch on in automotive? Never have to be present to shoot a commercial, can have a deep fake of some celebrity in your commercial/social, etc?This leads into my next topic: are we over promising and under delivering. I know we say this a ton. It's been one of those weeks where so many of the incredible humans in this industry have 110% delivered over and over again. It makes the industry better, the world better, and makes me a better person. Thank you. A friend once said to me when meeting for the first time in person, “Brooke, you are exactly the same in person that you are online.” Exactly. In fact, if there should be any difference, it should be that I am better. I don't say that egotistically, I say that as I am true to myself. Over delivering is so important. The moment someone is underwhelmed, it becomes a tough recovery and very steep hill to climb to regain their trust. Are you over delivering in life?Customer Wants to be Understood, NOT to Understand you: Cut to the next topic! How many people really stop and ensure that the customer/client truly feels understood? It is not about you; it is about them! It is 100% about them feeling understood. Bottom line, are we listening to our customers? Are we seeking to understand them so that they can be understood? Are we doing what we say we will do? Do we communicate with them in their preferred method? Are we doing the little things to over deliver?Follow, subscribe, rate, and never miss a show!#FactsNotFeelings #DeepFakes #SyntheticMedia #SeekToUnderstand #OverDeliver #UnderPromiseOverDeliver #Potpourri #BZConsultantsGroup #FactsNotFeelingsFriday #BZConsultants #MovingAutomotiveForward #60Minutes #DeepFakeTomCruise #DeepTomCruise #BeKind #CustomerExperience #Consultant #Podcast #automotive #CarConsultant #AutomotiveConsultant #CartTalk #CarDealership #WomenInAutomotive #WomenInBusiness #AutomotiveMarketing

Frische Start-Up Ideen und wie man sie erfolgreich macht. Heute mit Victor von Synthesia und einer spektakulären Technologie: Deepfakes, und wie man daraus ein Unicorn baut▶ Was sind Deepfakes?▶ Wie kann diese bahnbrechende Technologie für kommerzielle Zwecke genutzt werden?▶ Wieso Ideen besser sind, die den Kuchen für alle größer machen▶ Wieso in der Zukunft niemand an Video vorbei kommt▶ Wieso gerade die Ideen gut sind, die die meisten für schlecht halten+++Start-Up Ideen und wie man sie erfolgreich macht: Der kostenlose Newsletter auf www.digitaleoptimisten.de mit Geschäftsideen, die du sonst nirgendwo findest.***Sponsor dieser Folge ist kununu. kununu hat 1.9 Millionen Einträge in ihrer Datenbank, in denen Arbeitnehmer ihre Arbeitgeber bewerten. Für dich kann das daher ein echt gutes Werkzeug sein, um hinter die Kulissen eines neuen Arbeitgebers zu schauen. Und wie wir alle wissen: so viele Menschen wie heute haben selten ihren Job wechseln wollen. kununu will die Arbeit für alle besser machen - klicke auf diesen Link für mehr: https://bit.ly/38BcuM0+++Herzlich Willkommen bei Digitale Optimisten. Ich bin Alex, und in diesem Podcast geht es um Inspiration für neue Geschäftsideen und Strategien, wie man diese Ideen umsetzen kann.Ich möchte eine ikonische Firma bauen. Wie bewaffnen die Rebellen im Kampf gegen das Imperium. Ich will das jeder aus seinem Schlafzimmer heraus Hollywood-artige Filme entwickeln kann.Das sind Sätze, die du in diesem Interview hören wirst von einem beeindruckenden Gründer, Victor Riparbelli von Synthesia. Und ich kann dir sagen: ich bin Fan seines Produkts. Ich würde sogar so weit gehen, dass es ein magischer Moment war, als ich sein Produkt das erste Mal ausprobiert habe. Ich hab folgendes gemacht: Ich habe einen kleinen Text geschrieben, ich habe einen künstlichen Avatar ausgewählt und ich habe die Sprache ausgewählt. Das wars, und dann hatte ich einen fotorealistischen Menschen, der meinen Text genau so vorgelesen hat. Leider ist Audio nicht das perfekte Medium dafür, aber es war magisch, wie gut dieser Deepfake, so heißt das nämlich, schon geklappt hat. Hier und merkt man noch, dass es kein echter Mensch ist - aber wir sind zu 96% da, würde ich sagen.Synthesia ist text-to-video und ist genau das: du gibst einen Text ein, und schon erzeugst du ein fertiges Video, was Du verwenden kannst. Synthesia ist u.a. von Mark Cuban und Google Ventures finanziert, und setzt in 2022 sein hyperaggressives Wachstum fort. Ein super spannendes Interview - es kann sein dass Victor wirklich ein Elon Musk von morgen ist.Bevor's losgeht noch der kleine Hinweis: Auf digitaleoptimisten.de kannst du dich zum kostenlosen Newsletter anmelden, in dem ich unter anderem meine Geschäftsideen aufschreibe, die unbedingt mal jemand machen muss, mir aber leider die Zeit dafür fehlt.3 Learnings aus dem Gespräch:Die besten Ideen sind die, die den Kuchen größer machen, nicht eine Lösung durch eine andere ersetzen. Synthesia denkt sich, dass es viel sinnvoller ist, die Millionen Menschen, die bisher keine Videos produzieren können, zu Videoproduzenten zu machen. Dieser Markt ists viel viel größer, als wenn sie nur auf Leute gehen würden, die jetzt schon Videos produzieren. Victor sagt: wir wollen das Powerpoint werden, nicht das Adobe Premier Paket. Das passt perfekt, denn jeder benutzt Powerpoint, aber nur ein paar benutzen die Adobe Produkte wie Photoshop.Content is King - Video is King: Die letzten 10 Jahren waren schon enorm für Content Creator auf der ganzen Welt. Die meisten geben sich nicht mehr damit zufrieden Werbung zu machen, sondern bauen eigene Mini-Imperien auf. Mit Technologie wie Synthesia sinken die Barrieren immer weiter, tollen Content zu produzieren - vielleicht gibts diesen Podcast in ein paar Jahren auch als Video, einfach weil ich diesen Text in ein Eingabefeld auf Synthesia eintippe.Es ist gut eine Idee zu betreiben, die jeder für eine schlechte Idee hält. Das gilt sicher nicht für alle Ideen, manche sind einfach schlecht, aber Victor beschreibt wie ihn alle belächelt haben, als er eine Firma rund um Deepfakes aufbauen wollte. Er hatte aber eine große Vision und nahc über 80 Absagen eine Zusage bekommen, von niemand anderem als Mark Cuban, Eigentümer der Dallas Mavericks. Was sind die schlechten Ideen von heute? Vllt. NFTs? Metaverse? Augmented Reality? Audio?
Recent advances in deepfake technology have made it harder to distinguish between real and fabricated content, posing substantial threats to public figures, organizations and our national security. This week, host Elisa is joined by Matthew Ferraro of WilmerHale to discuss the threat of synthetic media and how this technology amplifies the spread of disinformation. What potential does this technology have to alter public perception during election cycles? Do we have laws in place to address these threats? And how can we combat the malicious use of this technology while also upholding our First Amendment rights?

Ich bin Alex, und wir sind in diesem Podcast auf der Suche nach den nächsten Elon Musks, die mit ihren Ideen die Welt verändern wollen. Damit sind sie aber noch ganz am Anfang, so dass Du urteilen kannst, ob es wirklich das next big thing ist.Wusstest du, dass im Jahr 2016 eine künstliche Intelligenz fast einen Literaturpreis in Japan gewonnen hat? Genau darum geht's heute: ein wirklich faszinierendes Thema mit einem sehr spannenden Gründer. Hast Du dich schon einmal gefragt, wer eigentlich diese ganzen Texte produziert, die du täglich liest? Artikel auf zeit.de, Produktbeschreibungen auf Amazon, eMail Newsletter, Werbetexte in Instagram-Werbung, und und und. Überall sind Texte, die produziert werden müssen um dann irgendwie gelesen zu werden. Einige Schätzungen sagen, dass jeden Tag über 8 Mrd. Euro an Wert nur durch Text geschaffen wird. Von daher ist es nicht verwunderlich, dass dieser Markt ein riesiger ist, es gibt massiv Agenturen, die tollen Content produzieren, Ghostwriter, die Abschlussarbeiten schreiben und so weiter. Und natürlich gibt es auch künstliche Intelligenz, die dabei helfen will. Das heißt Natural Language Generation, oder kurz NLG, und ist einer der Bereiche, in denen gerade wahnsinnig viel passiert.Deshalb muss ich das Thema besser verstehen, und spreche dazu mit Dominik Lambersy. Dominik hat mit TextCortex das Accelerator-Programm von Entrepreneur First entworfen, und glaubt massiv an die Chancen in diesem Bereich. Wir reden über die Größe des Marktes, vergangene und zukünftige Entwicklungen und natürlich, warum TextCortex das nächste große Dinge sein soll.Ich freue mich über 5 Sterne Reviews und dein Feedback an alexander@digitaleoptimisten.de.

This episode focuses on the growing threat of Deep Fakes. We provide background on when it became prevalent in our society, how it's often used against us, and tangible guidelines to identify it so we aren't so easily fooled.
In this episode MMC Partner, Mina Samaan, sits down with Victor Riparbelli, founder of Synthesia - an MMC portfolio company that uses artificial intelligence to create high-end videos for many applications including personalised advertising, corporate communications and e-learning across more than 60 languages. Mina and Victor discuss the company's recent $50m Series B, what it's like to work with Snoop Dogg, David Beckham and Lionel Messi, Synthesia's company culture and how they have retained all but one of their staff since inception.
SummaryImagine a world where a creative director walks over to a workstations and says “We need a family, two parents and two kids, sitting down playing a game together.” The person at the workstation punches a few keys, adjusts a few things, and boom, out comes a unique image that is exactly what the creative director asked for. Not a mock up, not a set of casting photos. The complete image, ready for use because you already own the license. You paid to license the technology, the algorithm that uses an ever growing library of hundreds of thousands of images (which also have been properly licensed) to generate this unique imagery. Our guest for this episode, Mark Milstein is Chief Operating Officer of a company called vAIsual and with the tech they've developed you may not have to imagine this world much longer. Key TakeawaysvAIsual is a company that has created an algorithm and interface that creates entirely synthetic "models." These people do not exist in the real world, and are available for licensing without the legal considerations that come with hiring a real world model.This technology can and will manifest in a lot of ways - SaaS, PaaS, and white label services are all in the future of this technology.vAIsual shoots hundreds of thousands of images of real people every year. These individuals have signed model releases that release the rights of their biometrics to the company in order to be used as reference for the generations of synths.The e-commerce photographer of the future may become something more of a synthographer, able to leverage their skills to generate content exactly in line with the creative brief.This technology could allow for the extreme localization of content, allowing global brands to easily represent the various demographics they serve.ResourcesvAIsual on the webMark Milstein on LinkedInKoreas First Virtual InfluencerThese are the first 100% AI generated stock photos of peopleCreditsProduced by: Creative Force - creativeforce.ioEdited by: Calvin Lanz Sound - clsound.netHosted by: Daniel Jester - danieltjester.com

Kannst du deinen Augen im Netz trauen? Deepfakes produzieren Fake-Videos die täuschen echt aussehen - aber können sie auch was Gutes haben?///Die besten Job-Angebote der ambitioniertesten Start-Ups: http://www.digitaleoptimisten.de/jobsAlle Gründergeschichten auf http://www.digitaleoptimisten.de/storiesAlle Hear-Us-Grow Folgen Folge Digitale Optimisten auf Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/digitaleoptimisten//// Herzlich Willkommen bei Digitale Optimisten!Ich bin Alex, und wir sind in diesem Podcast auf der Suche nach den Elon Musks von morgen, also den Gründerinnen und Gründern, die ganz große Visionen mit ihren Start-Ups haben, damit aber noch ganz am Anfang stehen.Und genau darum geht es in dieser Folge. Es ist ein Thema, was mich wirklich umtreibt, weil es so krass ist - und für mich nicht klar ist, ob das ganze eine gute, oder eine ablehnenswerte Entwicklung ist. Es handelt sich um das Thema Deepfakes. Was sind jetzt schon wieder Deepfakes? Vielleicht hast du auf YouTube oder TikTok schonmal Videos gesehen, in denen Trump, Obama oder Tom Cruise irgendwie merkwürdige Sachen sagen. Vielleicht haben die das gar nicht gesagt, sondern es waren ebenjene Deepfakes, computer-generierte, synthetische Medien, die es so gar nicht gibt. Ein bisschen so wie ein Photoshop-Bearbeitung, nur irgendwie krasser.Zu dem Thema habe ich übrigens schon mit dem Chef des Bundesamts für Sicherheit in der Informationstechnik, Arne Schönbohm, in der Folge 31 gesprochen. Da habe ich gefragt, was der deutsche Staat eigentlich gegen diese Bedrohungen so unternimmt. Heute spreche ich aber mit vielleicht dem größten Experten auf diesem Gebiet, es ist Henry Ajder. Er ist sonst zu Gast in der New York Times, BBC, Sky, Wired und sogar der Cosmopolitan -r und heute eben hier bei Digitale Optimisten.Wenn du dich also jemals gefragt hast was diese Deep Fakes sind, ob die das Ende der Gesellschaft sind oder - Achtung Kapitalismus - sogar eine Chance für smarte Geschäftsideen sind, dann hör dir jetzt das Interview mit Henry an, das ich aus Termingründen vor ein paar Wochen aufgenommen habe.Wie immer freue ich mich über 5 Sterne Reviews und dein Feedback an alexander@digitaleoptimisten.de.

We are witnessing a “firehose of falsehood” on the internet and in the media: mis- and disinformation that attempts to overwhelm the truth. As deepfake and synthetic media technologies become more sophisticated and their use more prolific, it is becoming more and more vital to develop tools and systems to identify when media has been manipulated - often through fake or deceptive audio and video - to increase trust in our information ecosystem. This fourth installment of our Global Digital Rights Challenges series features Sam Gregory @SamGregory, Program Director at WITNESS @witnessorg and three Promise Fellows, Nick Levsen, Aya Dardari and Ani Setian. Hear Sam outline the work he is doing at WITNESS, including in consultation with actors in the Global South who have lived-experience of the impact of mis- and disinformation, and learn more about preparing for and pre-empting future deepfake crises by developing detection skills and ensuring equitable global access to media forensic tools. P.S. We have a small housekeeping note: The fifth conversation in this series is titled “Life Interrupted: the Impact of Internet Shutdowns” and in a way that is both oddly fitting and also unfortunate, the audio for that talk was throttled by - you guessed it - poor internet connectivity and is best enjoyed while watching the speakers in real time. It's a fascinating exploration of the power of ISPs, government's role in securing internet access, and the vulnerabilities when daily life relies on connectivity. Head over to our Promise Institute YouTube channel to watch Tomiwa Ilori speak with Mark Verstraete, and to round out our Global Digital Rights Challenges series. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BgqbQmIRMnM
Deepfakes and other synthetic media have been grabbing headlines recently for a spectrum of reasons, from unauthorized celebrity pornography to comedy memes and even alleged fraud cheating companies out of hundreds of thousands of dollars. It's a rapidly evolving technology that, like most technological innovations, can be used for good or evil. Henry Ajder is head of policy and partnerships at Metaphysic, an organization at the cutting edge of synthetic media. He joins us to help make sense of synthetic media, and why as security professionals we need to stay vigilant about the pros and cons of the technology.

This is a special episode of the Near Future Laboratory Podcast — a highlight reel from our General Seminar N°9 — a discussion on Synthetic Brands / Synthetic Media. We are now nudging into a world in which algorithmically synthetic and computer-generated artificial entities will likely be participating, collaborating, and fully assuming roles up and down the culture stack — from customer care bots to pop-stars and politicians. How do we make sense of all this? General Seminar is a platform for sense-making through discussion. One-to-many “expert” platforms like podcasts, TED Talks, and Masterclasses serve a role in the dissemination of ideas and opinions of a small group of experts. By their nature these are largely one-way, where ideas flow to a mostly passive audience who still must make sense of the topic on their own. General Seminar provides an alternative.

Prepare for your mind to be blown. If you aren't familiar with so-called "synthetic media," you need to be. Synthetic media in all its forms - AI-driven digital humans, virtual beings, deep fakes - will transform Hollywood (and our lives). They already are. But you haven't seen anything yet. Fearless media-tech innovator and entrepreneur Victor Riparbelli, CEO of Synthesia (one of the leading innovators in this new AI-driven video world), joins me to discuss Synthesia's technology today - and where synthetic media will go in the next ten years. This all raises questions about the meaning of "creativity" and the impact on the creative community (and impacts on our lives). What happens to the "soul" of creativity when all of us can create Hollywood quality movies from our bedrooms - and when real human actors are no longer needed to play the leading roles? We discuss it all in this fascinating live CREATV University discussion. Learn more about CREATV U at http://www.creatv.media/creatv-university.

In this episode, we explore "deepfakes" and the head-spinning breakthroughs in AI-generated synthetic media. Does the ability to digitally doppelgänger anyone doing or saying anything preface the end of trust, a revolution in reputational risk, or just the next era of entertainment? Seeing is no longer believing, so listen up as we peer deep to parse:What are deepfakes and why does AI-generated media differ from traditional CGI (computer graphic imagery) and Hollywood special effects?What do porn, meme culture, diplomacy, and the biometric fraud have in common, and why are deepfakes the through-line?Why fighting tech with tech isn't enough, and the multi-pronged approach needed to drive digital literacy and safeguard against the "Liar's Dividend".Ratings Time: At the end of each episode, we rate this breakout technology on our highly scientific scale to help innovators put this into context.

In this episode of the Crypto Conversation Andy is joined by Arif Khan, CEO of Alethea AI, a decentralized Synthetic Content Network that allows users to own the rights to their AI-generated identity, secured by a blockchain. Are you ready to monetize your likeness, face and voice data in a trusted environment? Why you should listen: Deepfakes are hyper-realistic AI-generated synthetic media in which a person in an existing image or video is replaced with someone else's likeness. Deepfakes can be used to deceive, such as a manipulated video of a politician deployed in an attempt to cause political unrest. However, individuals and media companies are now using the tech in exciting and creative new ways to enable virtual influencers and new digital and social media opportunities. The result is that the lines between virtual, digital, social, and reality continue to blur. Key takeaway: Synthetic Media is an emerging creativity multiplier that enables a new kind of storytelling. Like all technology, it can be used in both positive and negative ways. China's attempt to contain the Coronavirus is likely to accelerate the trend towards remote work, VR, and virtual identities. The future is likely to be weirder and stranger than you dared hope.
