Sweet now I can use AI to make any public person say anything

Not a lawyer, but might using AI to knowingly trick people into thinking a public person said something reputation damaging that they didn’t meet the “actual malice” standard of defamation in the supreme court decision NY Times Vs. Sullivan?
Edit: this is a general comment about using AI in this context, not about this specific video.

Funny thing is Elon got all pissy about tracking his plane. If someone did something like this to him and it impacted hos business he would lose it.

I think someone should make a law that says government can’t restrict someone speech, and id put it at the top of the list of other things the government can’t restrict.

Gavin Newsom scares the shit out of me. The epitome of “Daddy knows what’s best, so do what we say you unwashed simpletons”

I support free speech and all, but any unauthorised dissent should be squashed and punished swiftly and mercilessly.
Only then can we have free speech

Here’s a YouTube link to the video. It’s pretty clearly a parody and if you think otherwise then that speaks volumes about yourself.
Good ‘ol Newsom trying to strip away more constitutional rights. I’m pretty sure they teach in high school that the 1st amendment protects parody.

I agree with Professor Suggon Deeznutz on this one

Once again our sub falls victim to perceiving the problem differently than what it actually is 😔 Of course parody is legal guys, duhhhhhhh!!! But we’re not even thinking to contribute to the conversation meaningfully.
We need to better hold our business leaders accountable when it comes to clearly marking content that uses generative AI. Twitter devs recently created a new ‘Modified Content’ warning for Twitter, but isn’t displaying it on this parody ad, and instead set it as a tag they hand out to content at their discretion. **Why is this?**
Other social platforms are tackling this problem with a small banner at the bottom that says “Made with/in part with generative AI” that a creator can check a box for before posting. This also helps legally protect the intent of the original creator.
Twitter also recently made it so that your information and content on the platform are used to train ‘grokAI’ unless you go on a desktop browser and disable it in settings.
I think the takeaway here is that Twitter does not care about its own platform health or free speech in the way you have been taught it does. It along with Facebook are becoming #1 proponents for the new “dead internet theory.” We’re going to be training AI on meaningless AI generated content without realizing it, and completely ruin any shot at useful future tools. I don’t want to be on a platform like that, and if we don’t start raising our expectations, the entire internet will turn into this because of acts of the top 10 tech companies.
And if your response is that none of this matters, that’s your opinion and you’re entitled to it- however in less than 25 years, I expect AI legislation and how companies are legislating their own AI use to be one of the leading conversations of ethics. I want to be able to still use the web meaningfully in ten years, damnit!!

But you don’t need ai for this… people have impersonated voices since the beginning of time.

I believe there is a twitch channel that been using celebrity / politician imagine and voice to do parady for like over a year now, it’s call Athene hero something.
The chat ask question to any public figure including in the show and that public figure will answer, resulting in all kind of funny thing been said.

Why the fuck is Newsom still allowed to govern in this country? These authoritarian threats need to be easily impeached and removed from office forever.

Professor Suggon Deeznuts truly is one of the greatest legal scholars of the age, or any age really.

Can I be both for the right to post parody and also find musk to be insufferable? Cause that’s where I’m at…and I’m fine with that

You would have to be an absolute idiot to think Harris actually said any of those things. The ad is clearly trashing her. To argue this should be illegal is in the same vein as saying the second amendment applies only to muzzle loading muskets.
Just because it hurts your feelings doesn’t mean it should be a crime.

We all know it’s fake…. God damn.

Anyone with an IQ greater than 27 knows this was parody

The one musk shared was an obvious parody to a reasonable person.

To be fair, “Professor Suggon Deeznutz” is pretty funny.

The media has been manipulating audio and video clips forever. Most recently, the poor high school kid with that nut job Indian in D.C. He may have won a $100M slander suit, but it still ruined his life for years, and will probably do so for many years to come.
They did it with that kid Kyle who shot one of the ANTIFA members in self defense.
They did it with the “white” Hispanic man who was defending his neighborhood — they had my sister believing that the “white” guy shot a sweet looking, black, 12 year old.
The list goes on and on.
So now it is no longer the media elites that can lie on the nightly news by manipulating audio and video, now John and Jane Q Public can too.
