At the recent AI Action Summit held at the Grand Palais in Paris, Stanford researcher and founder of AI4Science, Fei-Fei Li, delivered the opening speech. Her address garnered widespread attention, addressing the regulation of artificial intelligence, commercial ecosystems, and its far-reaching societal impacts. Li emphasized that the future of AI should be built on a scientific foundation rather than exaggerated sci-fi narratives. She called on nations to invest in a healthier and more diverse AI ecosystem, asserting that the academic community and the public play a crucial role in this process.

The actors' union SAG-AFTRA has signed an agreement with AI cloning startup Narrativ, allowing actors to legally license their voices for AI-generated audio advertisements. The agreement ensures that actors have the right to understand and reject brand proposals, set prices, and negotiate for fair compensation. SAG-AFTRA's benefit plans will receive a share of the advertising revenue, though the specific percentage has not been disclosed. This agreement aims to address the widespread dissemination of AI-cloned voices without authorization, following ongoing concerns within the AI industry.
