Zixi, the industry leader for enabling cost-efficient and highly scalable live broadcast-quality video over any IP network or protocol and provider of the award-winning SDVP, announced a partnership with XL8 that has integrated Zixi into their innovative LiveSubs translation engine to create real-time subtitles powered by its proprietary state-of-the-art AI technology. LiveSubs allows customers to take their Zixi stream and generate live subtitled languages on the fly, from the source language into over 70 global language pairs. Media companies are under increasing pressure to meet the worldwide demand for hyper-localized translated media in the live distribution space and XL8 takes AI-powered machine translation, specially optimized for media content, to the next level. Its advanced technology allows significantly more efficient workflows by providing in-line editing, automated media transcription with time coding, automated subtitling, synthesized voice dubbing, real-time meeting interpretation including a soon-to-be-released Zoom app, and live subtitling. XL8's uniquely specialized translation engines have been built from the ground up utilizing professionally trained, human-perfected subtitles curated from the media industry's top content producers.

Artificial intelligence (AI) has been advancing rapidly in recent years, and one area where it has made significant progress is in the generation of human-like voices. AI voice generators have emerged as game-changer. An AI voice generator is a type of software or technology that uses artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms to produce synthesized speech that sounds like a human voice. These generators, also known as text-to-speech (TTS) engines, convert written text into spoken words. These tools save time and money and offer a diverse range of realistic and human-like voices for various applications.

Children as young as eight regularly watch two videos at once to feed their content needs, it has been reported, amid concerns that attention spans are diminishing. In a study of social media habits, Ofcom has revealed that a'split-screening' phenomenon is on the rise among children. Youngsters were often seen to watch two videos side-by-side that were connected or complementary in some way. But sometimes these videos were completely unlinked, with one 10-year-old seen viewing both movie clips and random'satisfying' ASMR-style videos at the same time. Although the child claimed that split-screening allowed them to learn and enjoy a movie simultaneously, others have raised fears over shortened attention spans.

ChatGPT, Bing Chat, and Bard promise to transform your life using the power of artificial intelligence, through AI conversations that can inform, amuse, and educate you--just like a human being. But how good are these new AI chatbots, really? We tested them to find out. We asked all three AIs a variety of different questions: some that expanded upon general search topics, some that demanded an opinion, logic puzzles, even code--and then asked them to be more creative, such as by writing an alternate, better ending to Game of Thrones and a Seinfeld scene with a special guest. We've included all of their answers, or as much as them as we could provide, and we'll let you decide for yourself.

As more companies rush to implement AI solutions and software, a growing number of experts are warning that it could result in an explosion of'fake news' and misinformation. Elon Musk, Steve Wozniak, and a host of other tech leaders and artificial intelligence experts are urging AI labs to pause development of powerful new AI systems in an open letter citing potential risks to society. The letter asks AI developers to "immediately pause for at least 6 months the training of AI systems more powerful than GPT-4." It was issued by the Future of Life Institute and signed by more than 1,000 people, including Musk, who argued that safety protocols need to be developed by independent overseers to guide the future of AI systems. GPT-4 is the latest deep learning model from OpenAI, which "exhibits human-level performance on various professional and academic benchmarks," according to the lab.

An open letter signed by hundreds of prominent artificial intelligence experts, tech entrepreneurs, and scientists calls for a pause on the development and testing of AI technologies more powerful than OpenAI's language model GPT-4 so that the risks it may pose can be properly studied. It warns that language models like GPT-4 can already compete with humans at a growing range of tasks and could be used to automate jobs and spread misinformation. The letter also raises the distant prospect of AI systems that could replace humans and remake civilization. "We call on all AI labs to immediately pause for at least 6 months the training of AI systems more powerful than GPT-4 (including the currently-being-trained GPT-5)," states the letter, whose signatories include Yoshua Bengio, a professor at the University of Montreal considered a pioneer of modern AI, historian Yuval Noah Harari, Skype cofounder Jaan Tallinn, and Twitter CEO Elon Musk. The letter, which was written by the Future of Life Institute, an organization focused on technological risks to humanity, adds that the pause should be "public and verifiable," and should involve all those working on advanced AI models like GPT-4.

In fact, none of them are real. Zhang Haijun, a street photographer in Chongqing, generated these images with Midjourney, an image-making artificial-intelligence program. A number of artists and creators are generating nostalgic photographs of China with the help of AI. Even though these images still get some details wrong, like the number of fingers that humans have or what Chinese characters look like, they are realistic enough to trick and impress many social media followers, including me. Retro AI artwork like Zhang's has also caught the attention of Tong Bingxue, a collector of Chinese historical photographs.

The first time I entered one of these groups, I felt like I had the voyeuristic ability to see into strangers' minds. I was immediately blown away by how imaginative human beings are. But then I was confronted with more disturbing material, namely, President Obama turned into a monkey and many pregnant celebrities. Dozens of prompters are fixated on this old racist trope and this tabloidy cultural fetish. Yes, I realize that pregnant bodies are beautiful. And searching through the Midjourney database some pregnancies --like the Status of Liberty's--seem motivated by curiosity.

On Wednesday, March 29 at 19:30 GMT: As powerful artificial intelligence systems improve their ability to create images, video and text, researchers are increasingly worried about the technology's seemingly inevitable role in disinformation and propaganda campaigns. Advancements in generative AI have the potential to radically alter our information environment to the point where humans – and even machines – may not have the ability to distinguish between content that is AI-generated versus human-made. The proliferation of tools powered by generative AI are making disinformation easier to produce, paving the way for a host of new problems with no clear solutions for online content moderators. AI ethicists and others within the industry are calling for more regulatory measures. And while many have hailed generative AI for its ability to provide highly personalised recommendations, the same online personal data that trains AI programmes could potentially be used to manipulate people en masse via chatbots to share conspiracy theories or foreign propaganda.
