First read this: An AI version of Al Michaels will deliver Olympic recaps on Peacock ⟶ https://www.theverge.com/2024/6/26/24185774/olympics-ai-al-michaels-voice-recaps

I'm sure there will be residual checks paid to the Al Michaels family for every instance of his voice being used, right?

"To help protect against potential AI-made weirdness, NBC says that “a team of NBCU editors will review all content, including audio and clips, for quality assurance and accuracy before recaps are made available to users.”

⟶ Riight. (Keep reading and do the math.)

(This is the math part)

"NBC estimates there could be nearly 7 million personalized variants in the US during the games — crossing dozens of sports, each with its own unique terminology, and identifying an array of athletes from around the globe."

⟶ which leads us to this: "But I still feel like there’s the chance somebody’s recap will include an AI-generated hallucination spoken out loud in Al Michaels’ voice, like highlighting the wrong athlete or bungling some unusual outcome in a sport."

⟶ like Jakub Štvrtecký? Good luck, NBC Peacrock!
