Amazon Alexa's Most Harmful Feature Ever
Techstream with Shelly Palmer and Seth Everett - A podcast by Underdog Podcasts
Categories:
Amazon just had a conference where it announced that Alexa will soon be able to speak to you with any voice of any person, living or dead. All it takes for Alexa to do this is a minute of audio. Shelly used this kind of deepfake technology during The Palmer Group's Innovation Series Summit this year, but the technology has advanced exponentially from January, and we're on the verge of something truly horrifying. We talk about why this could break bad and the potential ramifications, as well as whether the possible benefits could outweigh the dangers and risks. Then, for a lighter conversation, we talk about (spoiler warning!) Obi-Wan Kenobi, as well as the broader Star Wars universe and the technology being used to create these new series.
