This worries me:

CNN translates politicians using AI.

In this clip, Macron is speaking French, but if you do not speak French, YouTube will switch the sound to an AI voice which sounds a bit like Macron.

So now, when an American politician is listening to the President of France, he is no longer hearing what a real, human translator KNOWS Macron is saying. He is hearing what AI GUESSES Macron is saying.

What happens, if AI gets it wrong?

@randahl Amazon Prime has been doing this for a while, no warnings given.

"Excuse me, excuse me, Dan Blocker, are you in need of assistance?"

I'm watching Super Troopers, Dan Blocker has been dead for decades when this was shot. "Dan Blocker" should have been "bearfucker."
