David Attenborough says he is ‘profoundly disturbed’ his voice is being cloned with AI

David Attenborough, the world-famous naturalist with arguably the best-loved voice in Britain, has said he is “profoundly disturbed” to hear that AI websites in the US have been cloning his voice.

The actor said she had been approached by OpenAI nine months before to voice its AI system but declined for “personal reasons”.

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing.
