An LA-based company, Channel 1, claims it will become the first news network to utilize AI-generated news anchors starting next year.
The Daily Mail reports that Channel 1, an LA-based news channel hoping to launch in the near future, is planning to introduce AI news anchors. These AI-generated anchors, set to debut as early as February on ad-supported streaming platforms like Crackle, Tubi, and Pluto, represent a significant shift in news broadcasting. The AI anchors are created using a blend of digital doubles and animated faces, designed to mimic real human behavior and expressions.

I might enjoy watching the news again with AI talking heads. At least I wouldn’t feel insulted by the current crop of multi-millionaire fools that purport to be “journalists”.

Yeah, that'll be better. Instead of actual people lieing to us we can be lied to by Max Headroom. Don't see the improvement.

#8 "How will we know?" - Easily. The grammar and pronunciation will be correct.

I'm sure the "AI-generated news anchors" will spew the same Democrat talking points as their human counter parts.

And the end result will be imaginary anchors all mimicking the same DNC talking points in unison.

I believe this is confirmation that the news media has realized they have lost credibility with their real talking heads displaying too much bias, and they hope to make their messaging more credible with an AI that doesn't smirk and grin as it talks.

Yeah it is "just" Max and Maxine Headroom in all languages projecting the DNC talking points 24/7, but I sense something lurking behind these AI talking mannequins, something dark and sinister. I don't watch the mainstream news but millions of Americans and people all over the world do watch, listen, believe, and are persuaded by this even now. I sense it will lead to total mind control with the gullible and naive especially when AI politicians and AI celebrities ordering them to drink the kool-aide, spurred by computer generated threatening videos.

I can't stand real life news anchors so I'm very unlikely to watch fake fakers.

Watch for sinister progressions. The male bots will start out with the required clean-shaven, smooth, feminine faces. Slowly they might morph into androgyny and beyond!

Our local stations have a line up of minority bimbos who "report" local happenings murders shootings robberies etc. AI can't come soon enough.
