| AI Voice-Cloning Prank Video Sparks Uproar Among Influencers A shocking prank video created by an influencer utilizing AI voice-cloning technology has sparked uproar among social media users. Lip-syncing and editing have become commonplace techniques for many content creators, but the latest video featuring internet influencer Fagen Wasanni has taken things one step further. In the video, Wasanni uses artificial intelligence voice-cloning technology to create an impersonation of her friend and fellow influencer, Layla. The video, which was posted as a joke, featured Wasanni utilizing AI technology to replicate Layla’s voice and mannerisms. The AI-generated impersonation of Layla was then lip-synced to a scene from a movie. Upon viewing the video, many of Wasanni’s followers and fans were quick to criticize the move, with some calling it a violation of Layla's privacy. Multiple people on social media have spoken out against the use of AI voice-cloning technology for this prank, citing the potential implications such technology could have for the future. Nevertheless, the video has been viewed over 50,000 times since its upload, while other influencers have also been quick to jump on the trend, uploading their own version of the video. This has led to a growing conversation surrounding the ethical implications of using AI voice-cloning technology, with many questioning whether it should be used in such a manner. Regardless of the controversy, Wasanni stands by her decision, stating that the video was solely meant to be a lighthearted prank between friends and that no harm was intended. Going forward, it remains to be seen if this will spark a new trend of AI voice-cloning or if the uproar serves as a lesson that this technology is not something to be taken lightly. |
