An AI-generated deepfake of Steve Jobs, the late co-founder of Apple, unveiling a “new” AI technology by the company has gone viral on social media platforms like Reddit and YouTube.
Video content creator, Synthetic Voices on YouTube, had posted a recent video on their channel, titled “Steve Jobs on ChatGPT: The Future of AI Communication”.
The aforementioned video is posted below:
The 1 minute 27 second audio used in the video was scripted by ChatGPT, the famously known language model developed by Microsoft-backed OpenAI and the voice of Steve Jobs, the founder of Apple, was read out by a machine-learning voice synthesizer, elevenlabs.io.
The advanced technology, which uses deep learning algorithms and a voice synthesizer, was able to mimic the speech and mannerisms of the iconic entrepreneur, leaving many onlookers convinced that Steve Jobs had returned from the dead. The incident has raised questions about the capabilities of AI in mimicking human speech and behaviour, as well as the ethics of using such technology to impersonate real individuals.
The viral sensation also has sparked discussions about the future of AI and its potential impact on society. Some have praised the technology for its ability to revolutionize industries and improve our daily lives, while others have raised concerns about the potential for misuse and abuse of the technology.
Internet users are also cautious that with such advancements come ethical concerns, especially when it comes to impersonating real individuals without their consent.
