ZeMKI, Centre for Media, Communication and Information ResearchSami Nenno on AI and disinformation in the tazNewsZeMKI-News24. May 2024Sami Nenno from the Digital Communication and Information Diversity Lab comments as an expert on AI and disinformation on the potential of synthetically generated voices for disinformation in the German newspaper taz. The background to this is the presentation of OpenAI’s voice engine model, which makes it possible to create artificial voices based on short audio recordings. While this enables positive applications such as restoring speech to people with speech loss, there are also concerns about potential misuse cases such as disinformation through synthetically generated voices. So far, OpenAI has not yet released the model for general public use.To the taz articlePersons Sami NennoLabs Lab Digital Communication and Information Diversity
