Israel launches AI-driven news channel on TikTok
posted 2 Aug 2023
Prominent Israeli journalists Miri Michaeli and Amit Segal have fashioned their own digital avatars for the ACT News channel on TikTok, thanks to artificial intelligence.
While the artificial voices of Michaeli and Segal exhibit some deviation from their real-life vocal tones and there are minor lip-sync discrepancies, audiences readily accept the news as genuine.
Initially focused on championing Israeli interests, the brains behind ACT News now plan to harness these AI-powered avatars to cover "uplifting events from around the world".
