Oliver’s audio is one of six messages generated by artificial intelligence meant to resemble the voices of individuals killed by guns in different incidents over the past decade.
The messages will appear on the Shotline, an online platform that the groups created, where users can individually send the AI-generated audio directly to the offices of members of Congress, demanding further action on gun violence prevention.
“We have to interrupt people’s regularly scheduled programming as a movement to get their attention,” said David Hogg, the co-founder of March for Our Lives and a survivor of the Parkland shooting.
Hogg explained that typically, on the anniversary of the shooting, March For Our Lives tries to respect the wishes of parents from Parkland, and working with Change The Ref is part of that.
Change The Ref has used AI to replicate Oliver’s voice in the past – in 2020, his parents worked to create a video of their late son speaking about the importance of voting.
But I would say this is not a negative use case," said Hany Farid, a Professor at the University of California Berkeley who specializes in digital forensics and detecting disinformation.
