🌀 Tom Cruise Warns About 'Corrupt Officials' ... There's Just One Problem

Good Morning from the Promptbox Team!

ETH is having a moment.

With BlackRock officially putting in paperwork for an ETH ETF, the #2 coin has been pumping for the last 24 hours.

I expect profit-taking today, which should flow into some alts. Shitcoins look to be taking a breather and may be a prime buying opportunity.

Also, someone asked about what gaming projects I was looking at and one of them is $GMEE.

Happy Friday. Let’s get it.

In a development concerning the spread of fake news, an AI-generated voice mimicking Hollywood actor Tom Cruise has been used in a fake documentary series targeting the International Olympic Committee (IOC).

This series, (probably) falsely claiming corruption within the IOC, adds to the growing concerns about the misuse of AI in media.

Key Points:

• AI Impersonation: AI technology was used to replicate Tom Cruise's voice in a fake documentary series accusing the IOC of corruption.
  

• Nonexistent Series: The series, titled "Olympics Has Fallen," claims to be a Netflix documentary, but it doesn't actually exist.
  

• Disinformation Campaign: The IOC has denounced these episodes as part of an organized disinformation campaign.
  

• Fake News Amplification: The false content was widely shared on a major Telegram channel, predominantly in Russian, with over 400,000 subscribers.
  

• YouTube Removal: While YouTube has taken down the fake documentary at IOC's request, it still circulates on Telegram.
  

• Political Tensions: The disinformation follows the IOC's decision to suspend Russia's National Olympic Committee and allow Russian and Belarusian athletes only under a neutral flag in the 2024 Paris Olympics.

This incident underscores the growing challenge of AI-facilitated fake news, particularly in sensitive geopolitical contexts.

As the IOC navigates these uncharted waters, the broader implications for media integrity and the responsible use of AI in public discourse become increasingly pertinent, warranting close observation and reflection.

Promptbox’s Top Trending AI Stories:

CUTTING ROOM
DreamWorks founder Jeffrey Katzenberg predicts that generative artificial intelligence will cut the cost of animated films by 90 percent, as the technology is set to deliver serious disruption to the media and entertainment sector.
“I think that on the one hand, it will be disruptive and commoditize things that are very inaccessible for artists and storytellers today,” He said. “In the good old days when I made an animated movie, it took 500 artists five years to make a world-class animated movie. I think it won’t take 10 percent of that. Literally, I don’t think it will take 10 percent of that three years out from now.”

STRUCK
After 118 days on the picket lines, the longest such strike in Hollywood’s history, the Screen Actors Guild-American Federation of Television and Radio Artists has reached a deal with the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers
Undeniably, this is a huge milestone for Hollywood, a $130 billion-plus industry that has all but ground to halt this year, as both the Writers Guild of America and SAG dug in their heels over fair wages and the use of AI in their work.

SEARCH AND FOUND
Google’s AI-powered search experience is rolling out worldwide, after initial launches in select markets, including the U.S., India and Japan. Starting today, the AI-based conversational experience known as SGE, or Search Generative Experience, will be available in mor than 120 new countries and territories, globally.
Launched earlier this year, SGE is Google’s answer to Bing Chat, the OpenAI-powered AI chatbot experience available through Bing search and Microsoft’s Edge browser.

MUSICAL NOTES
Wednesday, the awards week wrapped with the CMA Awards. During this star-studded week, ASCAP, one of the industry's big performing rights organizations, invited artists and songwriters to a symposium on AI.
"I have specifically used ChatGPT, and going from giving it a line in a song that I wanted to write in a popular country song, to using it to write social media copy for captions and hashtags," singer-songwriter Anna Vaus said.
