Japan aims to protect image and voice rights from generative AI use

The Japan Times

Damage caused by the use of generative AI is becoming a serious concern, including from AI covers, in which people have AI tools learn the voices of singers and voice actors, and sing songs using the professionals' voices. The Justice Ministry has come up with a draft report calling for the protection of the voices and images of famous individuals as the use of generative artificial intelligence grows. The draft report on civil responsibility over the unauthorized use of portraits and voices of famous people was submitted to an expert committee Monday. The ministry will release a final report as early as August after receiving expert feedback. Many things remain unclear regarding what constitutes the illegal use of voices, as no Japanese court ruling has been issued on related rights. The ministry said that it hopes the final report will be used as a reference in lawsuits and AI development.

Andy Serkis defends lack of diversity in Lord of the Rings cast

BBC News

Andy Serkis is the master of motion capture. He is Gollum in the Lord of the Rings trilogy, Caesar in the Planet of Ape series, and Peter Jackson's King Kong. So, it feels kind of appropriate that our interview is happening virtually. He is speaking on a screen from New Zealand, where he is directing and starring in the next Lord of the Rings film, The Hunt for Gollum, which is scheduled to land in cinemas in time for Christmas next year. It sits absolutely between The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings trilogies, and books in fact, he explains handily, as it can be difficult to keep up with the ever-expanding Tolkienverse.

Stop looking for ironclad cybersecurity answers. They often don't exist

PCWorld

PCWorld highlights how cybersecurity experts often provide conflicting advice due to different risk assessments and varying contexts behind recommendations. Recent developments include Xfinity's $117.5 million data breach settlement with a September 14 filing deadline and Microsoft's AI-enhanced Windows security updates. Understanding nuanced context is crucial since simplified advice like "don't use public Wi-Fi" typically means avoiding sensitive tasks rather than complete avoidance. Cybersecurity advice is sometimes extremely straightforward.
