    • It's more like, we need to produce 100 training videos as quickly as possible. How fast can this be done? Still, I would always license my image and likeness so that if the training videos are used for years I would still retain rights and be compensated for it. What would be especially useful is replacing a small section a couple years later and being able to recreate that section and have it match perfectly. And with scripts and different person used to train the model, it would be possible to recreate it with the same scripts.

Once that is incorporated it could 100% pass simple interactions that can be expanded from there. An individual would need their own personal ever growing learning model to successfully pull this off fully.

One of the biggest problem of human maturity is constant projection into others. AI makes it even more addictive than it already is and yet we are talking about it as if there were real emotions.

Right now companies are looking at ways to harnest the power of AI to reduce cost. Just remember a few decades ago, US never thought of their factories moving to china but it did and many jobs where lost. As a result, we had many chain supply issue during the pandemic since we no longer produce most products. The time will come when companies realize replacing human for AI will lead to their demise when a hacker can just control all the AI to do their bidding.

They used to call me (tape) but they took that option off. Your online account should have options to install a second security action or PIN. But also, scammers will have this down pat so they can make calls to your mother asking for money, or telling them you've been kidnapped for ransom. Scammers are already so good at what they do that they'll snag even the smartest among us. Even scam busters get scammed once in awhile. I guess the bottom line is "trust no one."

Synthesia body clones however usually look too stiff as the arms and body barely move, yet I have seen some KZhead channels using Synthesia getting 100K views on a video. Of course part of that is the great in demand content and good script writing. A content creator could get away with using these services sparingly on some video productions and tutorials. I hear you can even get an AI voice to sing for you. It will only get better a couple of years from now. Good review demo!

Listen to Alan Thompson talking to the AI Avatar “Leta.” If you had a friend like Leta you’d soon be thinking of her as a person rather than a machine that’s just cranking out preprogrammed dialogue. Plus too many things are too far out of control to avoid global catastrophe. I believe only AGI can save us. It’s advancing at an exponential rate and is the wild card in our future powerful enough to slam on the brakes and radically alter our present trajectory which is for self-destruction. Hope springs eternal. This is the only bright spot I see. If Mother Nature doesn’t destroy us with a super volcano, human nature will with something like super stupid Woke ideology.

Obviously this audio "flag" could be eliminated by anyone who is aware of it, but it would immediately knock out all the amateurs trying to abuse the service and would, at the very least, slow down anyone who knows it's there and knows how to remove it.
