A WSJ columnist used Synthesia, ElevenLabs, and ChatGPT to create an AI video clone that could trick her bank's voice biometric system, make a TikTok, and more
This is a perfect example in the difference between proper #ai technology … Tweets: @yogapantschik : Well this is just fabulous! India, Philippines & Nigeria may actually convince me to extend my car's warranty...🤦🏽♀️ Now “I” have to authenticate everyone I speak with... @elonmusk I Cloned Myself With AI. She Fooled My Bank and My Family. - WSJ https://www.wsj.com/... Alex / @alexchecked : Journalist replaced herself with AI voice & video (aka deepfakes) to see how humanlike the tech can be. She used Synthesia and ElevenLabs, but others are working on this idea. The results were eerie. Read her article: https://www.wsj.com/... #ArtificialIntelligence #AI https://twitter.com/... @tejus_sawjiani : just a matter of time before we got to ask for OTPs for conversations with loved ones to make sure it's not an AI trying to scam us: https://www.wsj.com/... Septima Elle / @septimaelle : AI is very exciting. AI is also very risky. If you aren't having conversations with your families and friends about this, it's time to start. https://www.wsj.com/... David Harris / @union_nineteen : Wondering what ChatGPT and other AI can do now and in the near future? You'll find this brief video by @wsj tech reporter @joannastern (Union '06) entertaining and informative. At @unioncollege we are working hard to understand the challenges and opportunities AI creates. https://twitter.com/... Gavin Baker / @gavinsbaker : Wild. And scary. AI is both the most important new technology of my lifetime and the fastest evolving technology I've ever seen. This is not the Metaverse. This is not Crypto. This is not Web 3.0. It will be ironic if “proof of human” saves Crypto. https://www.wsj.com/... Joanna Stern / @joannastern : I made an AI voice and video clone of myself. (AKA I deepfaked myself.) Don't worry, the voice only fooled my... bank. 🆕 video: https://www.youtube.com/... https://twitter.com/... Glenn Gabe / @glenngabe : Well... that's not good. Super-interesting experiment from @JoannaStern -> A WSJ columnist used Synthesia, ElevenLabs, and ChatGPT to create an AI clone that could trick her bank's voice biometric system, make a TikTok, and more https://www.wsj.com/... https://twitter.com/... Dare Obasanjo / @carnage4life : Voice biometrics is a technology that's gotten obsoleted before it could even catch on. Smart technology that only responds to your voice is now insecure given AI voice cloning now exists. Crazy to think both technologies ussd to be science fiction. https://www.wsj.com/... Paul Armstrong / @paul__armstrong : The bank voice cloning is a massively serious issue that financial institutions need to find a response to. https://twitter.com/... Kenny Wassus / @kgw : spent a lot of time w @JoannaStern trying to get her replaced by AI. fun project to produce, fun edit, and i was able to sneak in lots of ai/robot pop-culture deep cuts https://www.youtube.com/... Matthew Yglesias / @mattyglesias : We definitely don't want to slow down this tech and risk missing out on all the benefits https://twitter.com/... Jeremy Olshan / @jolshan : When an AI version @JoannaStern showed up on our team's weekly Google hangout, she interrupted people with pointless non sequiturs. In other words, the AI was a humorless imitation of too many video attendees, and nothing like the genius of real Joanna. https://www.wsj.com/... Christina Binkley / @binkleyonstyle : Uh oh. Chase Bank couldn't tell the difference between Joanna and her AI -generated voice, and put AI right through to customer service. https://twitter.com/... Derek T. Muller / @derektmuller : We're a few years away from “Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep” for all online contact. https://twitter.com/... Joanna Stern / @joannastern : My AI voice clone fooled my family, bank and Evan Spiegel. And my video clone + a script from ChatGPT made a pretty decent TikTok. We're all going to be just fine. My latest video and column on the crazy—and creepy—world of voice and video AI: https://www.wsj.com/... Steve Skojec / @steveskojec : Places like India and China, where regulations go to die, will receive the massive economic benefits of any collective western litigation freak out over AI. And all the dangers will still come to pass anyway. https://twitter.com/... Sam Gregory / @samgregory : Couldn't agree more with quote in great @joannastern explainer: “you can't make everyone an AI detective” @witnessorg consultations say don't devolve responsibility to every individual, and that its getting easier to “carpet-bomb the internet with it” https://www.wsj.com/...
