"Biden's Ghostwriter Under Scrutiny: Judiciary Requests Information"

The House Judiciary Committee has requested President Biden's ghostwriter, Mark Zwonitzer, to provide any recordings and notes from their conversations, following special counsel Robert Hur's report that Biden shared classified information with the ghostwriter. Zwonitzer is unlikely to fully comply with the request as he deleted the audio recordings but retained the transcripts. The report concluded that while Biden risked sharing classified information, it did not prove that Zwonitzer intended to impede the investigation. The Judiciary Committee has also asked the Justice Department to turn over its recordings of Hur's interview with Biden.

AI-Generated Drake and The Weeknd Song Submitted for Grammys: Eligibility Questioned

An AI-generated song featuring facsimiles of Drake and The Weeknd's voices, titled "Heart on My Sleeve," has been submitted for Grammy consideration by Ghostwriter, the creator of the viral AI-generated track. While the song was written by a human, neither Drake nor The Weeknd were involved. However, the track's eligibility is in question due to copyright issues and the requirement for broad distribution. The Recording Academy clarified that AI-generated works are not eligible for awards, but if a human writes the track and AI is used for voice modeling, the writing would be eligible. The commercial viability of "Heart on My Sleeve" remains uncertain.

Ubisoft's AI Ghostwriter automates game sound and dialogue creation.

Ubisoft has developed Ghostwriter, an AI tool that uses machine learning to generate first drafts of video game dialogue, known as "barks." Narrative writers input the character and type of interaction they want, and the tool produces variations for them to review. The aim is to save time and allow writers to focus on more important aspects of game development. The biggest challenge now is integrating the tool into production.

Ubisoft's Ghostwriter AI tool generates video game dialogue.

Ubisoft has developed an AI tool called Ghostwriter to help scriptwriters generate first-draft dialogue for non-playable characters (NPCs) in video games. The tool will handle repetitive tasks such as phrases and sounds uttered by NPCs during triggered events, freeing up writers to focus on more important aspects of the script. However, the announcement has been met with criticism from some in the industry who argue that editing AI-generated scripts would be more time-consuming than writing their own dialogue.

Ubisoft's AI Ghostwriter Tool Supports Scriptwriters in Game Development.

Ubisoft has announced that its in-house AI tool, Ghostwriter, is helping its developers write dialogue for some of its games. The tool generates the first draft of NPC barks, which are phrases or sounds made by NPCs when players interact with the game world. The tool was created in consultation with the company's narrative teams to create more realistic NPC interactions by generating variations on a piece of dialogue. However, some in the field prefer bad lines written entirely by humans over optimized lines originally written by a machine.
