Artificial Intelligence replicates Broncano's vocal tone to deliver the The Camel Run's broadcast
In a series of recent events, the voices of prominent figures in Spain have been used without their consent, causing a stir in the country.
On the popular podcast, Mañaneros 360, it was revealed that the voice of actress Mercedes Milá was manipulated to give the impression that the Social Security system was not functioning in the country. The podcast host, journalist Mónica González Álvarez, discussed this issue on the show.
However, no information is available about whether El Rasillo de Cameros, a town in Spain, obtained permission from David Broncano to clone his voice for their festival announcements. The town's mayor, Francisco Javier Hernández Sáenz, was contacted by Mañaneros 360 to discuss the facts, but they were unable to do so.
Meanwhile, the image and voice of Princess Leonor were used in a scam, further adding to the confusion. As of now, no version of the facts from Francisco Javier Hernández Sáenz has been shared.
These incidents highlight the need for transparency and ethical conduct in the use of public figures' voices and images, particularly in the digital age where technology allows for such manipulation. It is essential for individuals and organisations to respect the rights and privacy of others, especially public figures, to avoid any misuse or misrepresentation of their voices or images.
- Artificial intelligence technology has been used to manipulate the voice of actress Mercedes Milá, highlighting the need for caution in the entertainment industry, especially when digital tools can create such impressions.
- The use of David Broncano's voice in the El Rasillo de Cameros festival announcements, without obtaining the actor's consent, is another instance where the ethical bounds of technology and artificial intelligence might have been crossed in the realm of sports events.
- The misuse of Princess Leonor's image and voice in a scam is a glaring example of how technology can be employed maliciously to misrepresent public figures, emphasizing the necessity for thorough oversight in their representation within the digital entertainment landscape.
