Generative AI and fake celebrity endorsements 🔴 AINTS 051

This week, Tristan and Tasia check out a new YouTube AI chatbot — but it's not what you might expect — and Perplexity ads coming soon to a screen near you — which is exactly what you might expect. We also review the latest in AI image generation and how it's being used to trick us into thinking public figures are endorsing products or politicians that they most definitely aren't. This is why we can't have nice things. Join us as we scream ferociously. Maybe we need to calm down.FOLLOWAI Named This Show on Facebook, Instagram, YouTube and X (Twitter)Tristan & TasiaAI Named This Show podcastFOLLOW-UPMicrosoft says Windows ‘Recall’ preview will be available in OctoberOpenAI signs multi-year deal with Condé Nast to use content in productsSee also: Google avoids “link tax” bill with deal to fund California journalism and AIGoogle's Gemini AI platform can now help put that final polish on your work emailsInside the NEW Gmail AI FeaturesGENERATIVE AI NEWSMidjourney AI generator opens up, offering free images to allSee also: FLUX: This new AI image generator is eerily good at creating human handsSee also: Black Forest Labs - Frontier AI LabProcreate defies AI trend, pledges “no generative AI” in its illustration appAI-GENERATED FAKE CELEBRITY ENDORSEMENTSData shows spread of fake 2024 celebrity endorsements on social mediaTrump Says He’s Afraid of AI After Sharing AI-Generated Fake Taylor Swift EndorsementSee also: How this startup uses AI to target fake content and protect the digital identities of public figuresOTHER AI NEWSYouTube's New Troubleshooting Tool for Hacked Accounts Is...an AI ChatbotPerplexity AI plans to start running ads in fourth quarter as AI-assisted search gains popularity Hosted on Acast.
