First, OpenAI offered a tool that allowed people to create digital images simply by describing what they wanted to see. Then, it built similar technology that generated full-motion video like something from a Hollywood movie.

Now, it has unveiled technology that can recreate someone’s voice.

The high-profile A.I. start-up said on Friday that a small group of businesses was testing a new OpenAI system, Voice Engine, that can recreate a person’s voice from a 15-second recording. If you upload a recording of yourself and a paragraph of text, it can read the text using a synthetic voice that sounds like yours.

As someone suffering from sciatica as a result of desk time, I feel this. This is why I consider the monetary system as it is abused and designed currently to be a cleverly masked slave system.

When the ruling class are able to dictate both how much money you get, how much you can buy with money, how can you even place a value on it. Shit's worthless. We've seen it become worthless overnight. I can't eat it, I can't shelter in it, I can't drink it. In my country, it's plastic, so I can only sympathise with the ecosystem we've been so careless of.. Not even burn it.

This is something I realised young, when my parents and grandparents described how much return they got for their time. It's even more evident across my lifetime.
