Hey, hope you are well, we are back for your dose of AI fun.

Lets get started with this edition of BunnyPixel AI…

Voice Cloning Free for All

Voice cloning technology creates artificial speech that sounds just like real people, from the tone to the little quirks in their voices. It's cool because it can help make digital assistants sound more personal, give a voice back to people who've lost theirs, and create super-engaging podcasts or audiobooks.

Enter VoiceCraft, a project cooked up by the brains at the University of Texas at Austin and Rembrand. This tool is a game-changer because it can mimic someone's voice within just three seconds of their speech. That's less time than it takes to tie your shoes! And because VoiceCraft is open source, anyone with some coding knowledge can jump in, play around, and improve it. This openness is a big deal – it means more minds working together to explore all the fantastic things we can do with voice cloning while also figuring out ways to keep it fun and fair for everyone.

VoiceCraft isn't just about copying voices; it's about opening up a new world of creative possibilities and making digital content more personal and engaging. With its open-source spirit, it's inviting everyone to be a part of shaping the future of how we interact with technology. How cool is that?

Settlement on George Carlin Deep Fake

In a notable lawsuit, the estate of the late George Carlin settled with Dudesy over an AI-generated special that imitated Carlin's voice and humor. This case highlights not only the ethical issues surrounding AI impersonations and deepfakes but also the challenges posed by the rapid advancement of this technology.

While the settlement restricts Dudesy from using Carlin's likeness without permission, it also highlights the difficulties in curbing and identifying unauthorized AI creations.

The quick evolution of artificial intelligence makes it increasingly hard to police these impersonations, signaling a complex battle ahead in balancing technological innovation with the protection of individual rights and identities.

Drones to get unlimited range?

Big news from the drone world! Researchers in Denmark have figured out how to let drones charge up by chilling on power lines. This means they could fly forever, making tasks like inspecting those very lines, keeping an eye on wildlife, or swooping in during emergencies way more efficient. They decked out a drone with some cool tech, including a unique gripper to latch onto the lines and juice up. Tested out for over two hours without human help, this could be a game-changer for how we use drones in the future. Stay tuned as they work to make it even tougher and ready for all kinds of weather and terrain.
