David Attenborough finds an AI rendering of him to be ‘distressing’

It’s a bad thing because Attenborough’s vioce isn’t just his voice. He’s not lauded because of his vocal prowess - it’s because of his knowledge of the subject and the fact that if he says something - even read from a script - his professional reputation means that he would question material that doesn’t pass his sniff test.

Whatever people say - it is this reputation that people are exploiting, not his vowel sounds.

Reputation is an interesting point.

But as I said in another post. That is no issue of AI itself.

We need anyway a verification of validity for anything in the near future.

Therefore it is already late for thinking about that. In the modern world nothing is valid until proven to be.
