As most of the Lemmy users are security/privacy minded, after a question about alternative voices I’m wondering. Why would you allow a virtual assistance to spy on you constantly? (Especially when you don’t need to due to other limitations)...
I have an Amazon echo that is a glorified weather reporter and cooking assistant. It’s pretty useful for setting timers and for calculating conversions for measurements. I also use it as a white noise machine for bed time.
I do get the random interruptions where it some how responds to some random conversation I am having and I promptly cuss it out. It’s probably foolish for my privacy, but I don’t actively plan crimes in front of it, but who knows how it might bite me in the ass in the future.
I took a look and it’s honestly a lot further along than I was expecting in terms of capability. In all honesty, for low level conent this is already surpassing the minimum necessary and I can already imagine greedy, low effort art thieves going all in on these and jaming out completely shows. And I expect people will watch them, or at least tolerate some of them.
Why would you use a virtual assistant?

Fable Studios created an AI-generated episode of South Park... during a Hollywood strike over AI. (techcrunch.com)
So, how much money do you think Matt and Trey are going to sue them for?
