Compared to OpenAI's antics I think this is actually a very reasonable move, and a good example of the less glamorous but more concrete reality of actual AI risk management. There's a concrete harm -- disruptive ease of impersonation over common voice communication channels. Tools for this will diffuse out anyway, because at the heart of the problem is a bad cryptography-style security assumption. We assumed voices were expensive to clone in real time with high fidelity, turns out maybe they aren't. In time, societal expectations will shift, like they did with photographs, but it sounds like Meta is making the responsible choice to not accelerate the cats ahead of the mice.
- wadd1e 3y agoI still think it's marketing because if it really is dangerous, why talk about it in the first place? (I don't doubt that it may be 'dangerous' if used for nefarious purposes, but if I have something dangerous, I wouldn't go announcing it to the whole wide world).
- salad-tycoon 3y agoIt’s absolutely marketing. “This heroin is too strong, just had 2 clients OD last week, you sure you can handle this?”
- wadd1e 3y agoJust wanted to say that I loved the analogy :)
