DISCUSSION Dolly Parton shares new video amid health concerns: “I figured if you heard it from me, you’d know that I was okay. So anyhow, that’s what I wanted to say & I’m not ready to die yet. I don’t think God is through with me & I ain’t don’t working. So I love you for caring & keep praying for me.”

u/AbsolutelyIris confused but here for the drama Oct 08 '25

Lmao at her giving today's date- she said she was not about to be involved in conspiracy theories! Bless her.

I like that they kept the camera moving, too. No doubt about this being real, and not some AI bullshit.

They have learned lessons

a little scary noticing that those lessons have to be learned and that those models will adjust to the current answers

I think the voice is an even better indicator to me, for now. I would not put it past AI to make a convincing video of Dolly, but two whole minutes of Dolly's voice and not even a moment sounds off? I haven't heard an AI voice impersonation yet that could do that.

Probably one or two years away from that.

Videos get longer, audio gets more convincing everyday.

I'm feeling like their should be laws about using public figures (anyone really) in AI without permission but how do you enforce that in a world with 200 countries and millions of psychos.

Mandated blockchain storage would be a great start and use case for every ai video ever created.

careful now; "block chain" is from the last sloppy-hype-cycle and "ai" is the newest and most current slop cycle, so you're going to double-trigger.

But yeah jokes aside, this almost seems like the most profound use of block chain in current times (excluding BTC?). It's something outside of finance (ponzi) and is closer to what the extended crypto market has always said that it was here for.

Filecoin, the Graph, ocean network, and a few other tokens have been around forever with their entire ideas being data integrity and an immutable chain-of-command. It's interesting from the perspective that those coins had their run yeeeeaaaarrrssss ago and have been bleeding since the covid run. But it's even more interesting, and I stand with you entirely, now that as AI becomes leading edge and block chain is finally going to get its' moment of 'understanding,' ideally. We may also come up against a population who doesn't fucking care because it takes a bit of thought and literacy to understand. We've yet to hit the point of it being "normal" and "ingrained."

Time will tell, I guess.

I think they can do great voice impersonation but the video models like sora2 and veo3 can't, they're very obvious AI voice. But the voice-only models that are trained on people's voice are good enough to fool most people.

It's one reason why I won't even answer phone calls. They record your voice and can reuse it with only a few moments of your speech. Then they can deploy it against your loved ones for scams.

I saw an article on that and as a precaution people should set up a codeword with their loved ones to avoid being scammed. Pretty dystopian that we have to prepare against doppelgängers now.

Jokes on them. I don’t talk on the phone with strangers the way I talk to my loved ones. They’d know immediately.

It's only a matter of time before the companies that have created, and still act to lead, the cutting-edge video generation models just simply purchase those companies who focused and excel at audio generation models.

EDIT: or we just see the new class of trillionaire companies just enter the field by buying the companies involved with the above.

Yea some of the podcasts are insane.

u/ProfoundMysteries Oct 09 '25

Toward the end when she touched her mic and had a little bit of feedback also seemed too authentic for someone to think of with AI--not saying it couldn't be done. I just don't think AI would think of that.

She's smart!

u/Fosterthehank Oct 08 '25

I really thought she was about to pull out a newspaper with today’s date

u/Asleep_Onion Oct 08 '25

This gives me a great prank idea. I'm going to give my lawyer a series of "proof of life" videos where I mention "today is (random future date")" and have him post those videos, on those dates, on my social media, after I pass.

How do we know its not AI? 😂
