With artificial intelligence advancing, experts have long warned about the consequences of the technology when used incorrectly. Now, more concerns have been raised after a manipulated AI video mimicking the voice of Vice President Kamala Harris<\/a> has been shared.<\/p>\n The video is laden with \u2018Harris for President\u2019 branding and even includes some real clips from the past. A voice-over audio has been added which impersonates the Vice President and claims she\u2019s a \u2018diversity hire\u2019 and doesn\u2019t know \u2018the first thing about running the county.\u2019<\/p>\n The voice in the video says: \u201cI, Kamala Harris, am your Democrat candidate for president because Joe Biden finally exposed his senility at the debate. Thanks, Joe.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cI was selected because I\u2019m the ultimate diversity hire, I\u2019m both a woman and a person of color. So if you criticize anything I say you\u2019re both sexist and racist.\u201d<\/p>\n The almost two minute long video was created by a YouTuber who goes by the name \u2018Mr Reagan.\u2019 It has since racked up 6.9 million views on X and has been watched by almost 200,000 people on YouTube.<\/p>\n The AI video has gained major attention since it was published and even caught the eye of technology billionaire Elon Musk<\/a> who shared it on his X (formerly Twitter) profile. He didn\u2019t explicitly mention it being doctored.<\/p>\n In response to the Governor of California, Gavin Newsom, who also took to X to say \u2018manipulating a voice in an \u2018ad\u2019 like this one should be illegal,\u2019 Elon hit back.<\/p>\n \u201cI checked with renowned world authority, Professor Suggon Deeznuts, and he said parody is legal in America.\u201d<\/p>\n I checked with renowned world authority, Professor Suggon Deeznutz, and he said parody is legal in America \ud83e\udd37\u200d\u2642\ufe0f https:\/\/t.co\/OCBewC3XYD<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 Elon Musk (@elonmusk) July 29, 2024<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n A Harris campaign spokesperson, known as Mia Ehrenberg, said in an email to The Associated Press<\/a>: \u201cWe believe the American people want the real freedom, opportunity and security Vice President Harris is offering; not the fake, manipulated lies of Elon Musk and Donald Trump.\u201d<\/p>\n Featured Image:Via Midjourney<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\nElon Musk weighs in on AI videos as governor speak out<\/h2>\n
