"For a short period of time on Friday, #DarthVader could drop F-bombs in the #videogame #Fortnite as part of a #voiceAI implementation #gonewrong, reports #GameSpot. #EpicGames rapidly deployed a hotfix after players encountered the Sith Lord responding to their comments with #profanity and strong language.
While Epic acted swiftly in response, maintaining the feature while preventing further Jedi mind tricks from players presents ongoing technical challenges for #interactiveAIspeech of any kind."

I use Eleven Labs to read my writing out loud to me in a natural voice, and I noticed a new feature today: Speech to Speech.
You can record or upload audio, and it will create new audio of what you said using one of its generated voices. It uses your intonations and even does laughter. Here's an 8-second example that turned me into "Adam."
The only advantage I can think of for this over plain AI voices is that it can do a wider range of emotions. What else?
Text-To-Speech capabilities are around for more than 10 years. I'm wondering how the Text-To-Speech technology has improved thanks to the improvements in AI area

All the more reason why to stop publicly posting about your kids and letting kids have public social media accounts. It will be interesting to see if this is just a passing fad scam, or if spoofing kid's voices will become more prevalent. (Get your safe word prepped now)
