If perfect imitations are outlawed, only outlaws will have perfect imitations.
I’m not sure how useful that question is. If it can be done then it will be, and we’ll have to deal with it whether we want it or not.
- masswerk 7y agoI suppose, we'd want bots distinguished (by tone, etc). Where's the practical value of not being able to discern an algorithmic speaker, e.g., on the phone. There's probably some value in being able to do so, regarding liabilities and so on. (A contract arises from an agreement of intents. We may not be sure, if such an agreement has actually been reached, or if we were just witnessing a behavioral pattern triggered by a Markov chain. We may also question the nature of the intent or who's intent this actually is.)
