Comment on Amazon is working on giving Alexa the ability to mimic anyone's voice

Comments

This is a technology where is really hard to come up with a use case that isn’t intrinsically negative for humanity. The example they demo of puppeteering the voice of a deceased loved one strikes me as tone deaf and off putting, which seems to be the common response in the comments

I guess we all better hope we don’t leak 60 seconds of our voice anywhere online or within hearing of an Amazon device
