I just listened to this AI generated audiobook and if it didn't say it was AI, I'd have thought it was human-made. It has different voices, dramatization, sound effects... The last I'd heard about this tech was a post saying Stephen Fry's voice was stolen and replicated by AI. But since then, nothing, even though it's clearly advanced incredibly fast. You'd expect more buzz for something that went from detectable as AI to indistinguishable from humans so quickly. How is it that no one is talking about AI generated audiobooks and their rapid improvement? This seems like a huge deal to me.

Ah yes, Audio AI. I can't wait for this rapidly-approaching future where you literally won't be able to trust the validity of anything your senses tell you anymore

Imagine the day when people post videos of the president saying literally anything with pitch perfect audio voice synth

Imagine going to prison for a generated clip of you confessing to a crime.

Once the tech is that good, a recording of your confession will be useless as evidence in court.

...but it is already that good? The fact that celebrities are having to come out and say it wasn't them in an ad is proof enough that it can fool people

You only need to fool a jury

Then we'll have to take more care with how jury trials are conducted. It's always been possible to fool juries, that's often a lawyer's entire strategy.
