George Carlin’s daughter Kelly Carlin is not laughing at an AI-generated comedy special on YouTUbe consisting entirely of an “impersonation” of her comic-genius father. The specia…
The first minute of it is literally them explaining multiple times that this is not actually George Carlin and it’s just an ai trained on his material so it can learn to write like him. They also trained it on his voice so it sounds like him.
I only watched a few minutes out of curiosity and was actually impressed how closely it matches his voice and style.
I’m kinda against using AI to revive a person without their express permission. So anyone who’s already dead shouldn’t be eligible.
But regardless the tech is impressive in practice it’s kind of scary.
Anyway, just writing to let you know they really hammer home that it’s not actually him.
