Katie Notopoulos, a month ago at Business Insider:
Amazon has launched a new feature that uses AI to generate a
short, podcast-like audio segment where two “hosts” discuss the
merits and reviews of a specific product.I think it could be one of the funniest, closest endpoints to
human civilization we’ve seen yet in our new AI-enabled world. If
this sounds a little confusing, here’s an example. I tried it out
for diaper rash cream, and, voila! A podcast! (Sound on.)
I don’t what’s worse: that anyone at Amazon thought actual people would really listen to these, or if actual people really are listening to them.
