And now someone has uploaded a version that wasn't filmed off a TV.
There's also the torrent link there, which is probably the fastest way to download the 60 Minutes segment on CECOT if you want to save the file locally to your computer.

The White House has been caught.
The administration inserted a photo of Bill Clinton, Michael Jackson, and Diana Ross into the Epstein files and falsely implied it showed them with victims.
In reality, it’s a publicly available fundraiser photo featuring Jackson and Ross’s own children.

Speaking as someone who was responsible for hiring actors in 3 big AAA video games, VO is one of the cheapest assets in the game. Gargantuan bang for buck. I think we spent as much on a single character model as we did on all the VO for the whole game.

"It's just concept art, who cares if they use genAI and not actual artists?"
Look at this concept art for C-3P0 by Ralph McQuarrie.
It's the very thing that inspired Anthony Daniels to go for the role of Threepio and perform him as such.
It is the first heartbeat of the art that now exists.

Game Awards last year took place during a videogame strike against AI
The strike wasn’t mentioned or acknowledged despite many VO performers working on the games that are heralded every year and even appearing on stage
This year a game that features AI voiceover gets a podium to accept an award.

Bluesky’s head of trust & safety responding with a sarcastic image macro to a woman upset her husband was kidnapped by ICE is embarrassingly unprofessional & cruel behavior.
that account was then banned by Bluesky Trust & Safety. horrendously poor community management. what purpose does this serve?
