Ukraine on Wednesday presented an AI-generated spokesperson called Victoria who will make official statements on behalf of its foreign ministry.
The ministry said it would “for the first time in history” use a digital spokesperson to read its statements, which will still be written by humans.
Dressed in a dark suit, the spokesperson introduced herself as Victoria Shi, a “digital person”, in a presentation posted on social media. The figure gesticulates with her hands and moves her head as she speaks.
The foreign ministry’s press service said that the statements given by Shi would not be generated by AI but “written and verified by real people”.
“It’s only the visual part that the AI helps us to generate,” Dmytro Kuleba, the Ukrainian foreign minister, said, adding that the new spokesperson was a “technological leap that no diplomatic service in the world has yet made”.

Within the foreseeable future, it would be foolish for Hollywood studios to generate entire movies using AI.The tech does not seem ready to produce consistent products as of now, leading to disastrous results. That's why it would be smarter to start with making AI-generated animated shorts to test the waters. Does this sound like a more logical option to you?

It's going to be mostly useful for Youtubers and influencers. Eventually a film studio will take the risk and do it; time will tell how well that goes
