Is deepfake content taking over?
I’m watching Jesus onTwitch.
He’s a bearded white man answering philosophical (and not so philosophical) questions from the chat.
Just key in out a question and Jesus will answer.
Of course,Jesus is an AI.
Whose face and voice is used for AI Jesus?
Is this really the sort of content Twitch should be used for?
I switch to another channel.
This time it’s apresidential debate between Trump and Biden, also made possible by The Singularity Group.
Twitch is actively promoting this throw in of content.
But what are the dangers of using AI in Twitch streams?
And why is Twitch promoting it?
Firstly, who is The Singularity Group?
Crypto, for one.
The game also allows users to create and play as their ownNFT.
Twitch livestreams are just another project for the activist group.
Simply: it’s data collection and recruitment.
Any money raised by these streams through donations goes directly into researching and developing AI streams further.
Leysen defended the use of cryptocurrency for its Mobile Minigames as another way to fundraise.
However, the rise in AI technology has caused the group to shift focus.
Indeed, Leysen sees it as important that smaller groups also make AI progress.
But numerous issues with disreputable companies creating unregulated AI content remain.
The question of deepfake content on Twitch remains a major area of concern.
Explicit “deepfake” content has no place on Twitchor anywhere.
Leysen also commented on the moral responsibility of deepfake content through AI.
The aforementioned streamer drama AI streams are an example of this.
Perhaps that’s a question to ask Jesus.
