Things and people aren't always what they seem

Various articles are always popping up on YouTube and Vince brought one to my attention the other day. He called me in to listen to an attractive young girl with a beautiful singing voice. He’d been listening to a few of her songs. After I left him to it, he tried to find out a bit more about her. He was pretty stunned to discover she was AI-generated and geared at helping people learn English through music! You may know of her/it already but it was new to us. From being somewhat smitten with her, Vince now thinks she is a great disappointment! The name, or maybe I should say the site is LoFi Lulla if you’d like to have a look for yourself. The photo is of the dance band Vince used to be in. You’ve seen it before. The two other men have since passed away and we’ve just learnt that the pianist now has Parkinson’s.

That’s always disappointing to find things like that out; although, I’d rather know than ultimately be fooled. Vince was a very active fellow! And still is!

AI is the new norm everything is now AI that we question the authenticity of something or someone sorry for the disappointment

You can't really trust anything nowadays which is a bit sad.

The world is getting scary, everything can be scammed and faked using AI.

I don't like the idea of AI generated songs or books. It takes away the human element

It seems that Al is taking over everything and that is sad. I don't care for Al and wish things would go back to normal.

There are many AI-generated people in my short video of Wechat ,who teach us this and that,including English. In the photo ,is the second from the left Vince ?

It's really hard to make the difference from real and AI generated. I took a test yesterday, look at two photos and guess which one was the original and which one AI generated. I missed more than half.

I have become so skeptical of everything I see or read or hear on the internet, because chances are now that it is AI-generated information. AI is not always a bad thing, but I wish there were requirements that stipulated anything generated by AI had to be labeled as such.

I hadn't come across that before. When I looked for it, I found the channel that says 'Experience the magic of AI —where virtual artists bring every song to life with passion and precision. We blend classic covers, calming melodies, and lyrical beauty to help you improve pronunciation, grow your vocabulary, and fall in love with English—one song at a time.' There were no actual videos though, they just showed a picture with the song playing. But then I was even more confused because below, in the video section, songs come up in other languages. For example there is one which I think is in Urdu, but nevertheless below this it says 'Today on LoFiLulla, we’re singing and learning English with “Main Tera Shehar Chhod Jaungi” even though it is not in English. And elsewhere Lofilulla is described as a prominent Pakistani singer. So has the AI system just 'adopted' another singer who happens to have the same name?

I'm sure it was a let down to know it was AI generated. I'm sorry two of the band members have passed and the pianist has parkinsons.

AI generated videos are getting overdone with the result we can't trust anything we see as real. I remember seeing this photo. The other three seem to be brothers going by their names.

I see AI also can engineer old photos to come to life and can also be given sound effects.
