Production studios and fans alike are turning to generative AI tools to make voice actors say things they never said — and their jobs are on the line.

Actor Tom Hanks and the daughter of late comedian Robin Williams have become the latest in Hollywood to voice opposition to the use of artificial intelligence so-called deep fakes amid an ongoing SAG-AFTRA strike that seeks to define how AI technology can be used without threatening stars’ lucrative likenesses.

Jamie Dimon also said AI would “of course” kill jobs, but noted that technology always does.

Microsoft-backed Open AI – the company behind generative artificial intelligence (Gen AI) tool ChatGPT – has rolled out a slew of new voice and image capabilities on its flagship platform.

Amazon said Monday it will invest up to $4 billion in AI startup Anthropic, part of a strategic partnership as the tech giant looks to take on the likes of Google, Microsoft and Nvidia in the battle for AI supremacy.

The platform said it would use a new feature from OpenAI that can generate “human-like audio.”

At least 17 per cent of men have received AI training in the last 12 months. Yet only 7 per cent of women were given the same opportunities. It may be because of the ‘pipeline problem’, according to new research.

The AI race between Google and Microsoft—which backs the creator of ChatGPT—is heating up.

Firms like Spotify, Uber and Accenture use Writer’s generative AI tools to research, create and analyze content.

Tesla stock had its best day since January as investors bought into Morgan Stanley’s bullish thesis on the company’s untapped AI potential.
