The Weekly Podcast: AI: History for Congress – and A New Voice for Jennifer Wexton
History was recently made in Congress. For the first time, a member addressed colleagues on the floor – using Artificial Intelligence.
From July 25, 2024, here’s Democrat from Virginia – Jennifer Wexton:
I hope I can be a voice, even an AI voice, for Americans facing accessibility challenges and other disabilities because, too often, people only see us for that disability. In truth, we are so much more. Mr. Speaker, I ask my colleagues to join me in recognizing this Disability Pride Month and in celebrating the strength and perseverance of the disability community.
Why did Congresswoman Wexton need Artificial Intelligence to speak?
How did AI pull it off?
And what was did she sound like before AI cloned her voice?
