A partnership with OpenAI will let podcasters replicate their voices to automatically create foreign-language versions of their shows.

As long as money's involved, there's no way AI tech benefits society.

That kinda shit will only benefit the wealthy and the owning classes.

Unless, you know, it's properly regulated and stuff. Regulation works through laws. Laws are passed by the government. The government is elected by the people.

So get the proper people into government.

That's naive and delusional. At least in the USA, there's no chance of such regulations coming about, regardless of who is put in power. The RNC and DNC both are far more swayed by the money of those eliminating their work force than the plight of the worker. That isn't changing any time soon.

I'll eat my hat if they pass a law that actually protects workers and bans use of AI to replace human jobs.

And now refer back to my first comment, let that defeatist attitude go, and work on getting those things changed. If you were right, we'd still be living under kings and owning classical slaves ;)

I'm not saying it's easy or quick, I'm saying that your thinking makes it reality because you just accept getting assfucked... Which is exactly "their" goal.
