Hello, this is Victor Davis Hanson for The Daily Signal. I’d like to talk about a different topic, if I could. It’s this new phenomenon of artificial intelligence using a person’s face or body, using a person’s voice, using a person’s background setting, and then putting in their mouths a different message that they never said, and they not necessarily would agree, and in fact, often would disagree.
And it’s kind of an intellectual, not kind of, but is an intellectual theft. It’s like plagiarism or copyright violations.
And I speak from personal anguish because there’s about six VDH channels out there where it looks—it is me and my face. It is this setting that I’m in right now, the same bookcases, same clothes, somewhat same voices, but the lips don’t quite sync, and every single thing that comes outta my mouth is something I’ve never said. I’ve never attacked Vice President JD Vance. I’ve never used the F-word in public. I don’t criticize people in the way that these videos suggest.
So, what’s wrong with what’s going on?
The first of it is, of course, it’s theft.........
