AI face-swapping "fraud" appeared on variety shows
Anti-fraud has always been a cliché, but the deceptive and deceptive nature of Al face swap fraud is the strongest.
On April 26, in the reality show "Cute Detective 2024", the guests need to make videos to their relatives and friends through AI face swapping, and if they can complete the challenge without being recognized, they will be considered victorious.
Xiang Zuo AI changed his face to Wu Zhenyu and called his mother Xiang Tai, Xiang Tai only briefly expressed a trace of doubt at first, feeling that the other party seemed to be "thinner", but soon relaxed his vigilance, talked with this pretended "Wu Zhenyu", and even invited the other party to come to the house as a guest. This scene made many viewers sigh, "Fortunately, this is just a joke, not a real scam."
In this process, Xiang Tai is not alone in not immediately noticing the anomaly. Through the use of wigs, costumes and other props, Gao Ye, Na Ying and Tian Jiarui successfully performed a reverse performance. After receiving the call, Gulnazar gradually saw through this trick after several conversations. As for Wang Yang, he was always convinced of Meng Ziyi, who had become a high leaf through the "face changing" technique, and never doubted the identity of the other party.
And last week, a video of an uncle's real-time AI face changing into a cute girl made many people dare not compete to be the big brother on the list anymore.
Many netizens in the comment area ridiculed, "A new height of fraud", "Is the domestic live broadcast already like this "Black Mirror", and some people said, "Plus TTS voice will definitely make you anesthesia".

The dubbing industry boss authorized AI audio dramas, which caused controversy
Recently, voice actor Zhao Qianjing authorized his voice to the AI audio drama "The Legend of Mortal Immortals", and the TME Tianqin Lab's piano language engine trained a multi-timbre AI voice, realizing that Zhao Qianjing plays multiple roles.
As soon as the news came out, it sparked heated discussions, and many netizens called themselves "clowns": the front foot just finished standing on the stage for the voice actor who was infringed by AI, and the voice actor on the back foot authorized the voice to AI.
From the perspective of voice actors' career development and the entire dubbing industry, some netizens think:
Selling the sound at once is not conducive to long-term interests;
AI sampling has a very low cost and high efficiency, grabbing the jobs of real voice actors;
The artistry and emotional expression in traditional dubbing are difficult for AI to completely replicate, and live-action dubbing has unique personality and creativity;
Voice actors authorize their voices to AI, which will compress the living space of newcomers, which is not conducive to new blood entering the dubbing industry......
On April 23, the country's first "AI voice infringement case" was pronounced in the first instance of the Beijing Internet Court.
The cause of the case was that a voice actor accidentally found out that his voice was AI-processed and sold, and some film and television commentaries and game commentaries used his own AI-processed voice.
According to Article 1023 of the Civil Code of the People's Republic of China, the provisions on the protection of portrait rights shall apply by reference to the protection of the voice of natural persons. Voices have the same personality attributes as portraits, and the premise for the protection of voice rights and interests is that they are recognizable.
But the question is, is the AI voice protected?
In the review, the defendants all denied infringement on the grounds that the plaintiff's AI-powered voice was not recognizable with the plaintiff's own personality.
After the inquest in court and the statements of the parties, the judge believed that the plaintiff's AI-powered voice was still highly recognizable and could be linked to the plaintiff, and finally ruled that the defendant was infringing, required the defendant to apologize in writing, and compensated the plaintiff for economic losses of 250,000 yuan.
Overall, the development of AI technology is both a challenge and an opportunity for the voice-over industry. The important thing is to find a balance that allows AI technology and traditional voice acting art to coexist, complement each other, and develop together. At the same time, it is also necessary to ensure that the rights and interests of voice actors are protected and that their voices and labor are reasonably rewarded.
AI-generated 1950s live-action Mario movie went viral on Reddit
As one of the most classic games of the Switch era, Mario has attracted countless fans since the beginning of the generation, and has spawned various types of games and movies.
Recently, some foreign netizens used AI to generate a live-action Mario movie in the 1950s, which has now received more than 70,000 votes on the American version of "Zhihu" Reddit.
Different from the general questioning and critical voices in the comment area of AIGC works, the comment area of this video can be said to be a piece of peace and love:
Large-scale double-standard site:
However, although the overall style of the video is relatively harmonious, coherent and unified, there are still subtle distortions and distortions in the expressions and movements of the characters in the video.
有人猜测，该视频用到的工具可能包括：Stable Diffusion、Stable Diffusion Video和ComfyUI，甚至可能还有一堆其他的SD插件。 同时，剪辑也可能下了很大功夫，总之绝不止是创作者轻描淡写的一句“The video was made fully with AI”。
At the same time, this also once again confirms the combination of AI technology with classic IP and pop culture, which is easier to produce explosive content.
It is foreseeable that AI will play an increasingly important role in the creative industry in the future, and the way we consume entertainment products will also be reshaped.
