Being one of the leading companies in the artificial intelligence sector, Nvidia It has a large number of new features that have been developed to try to offer the greatest possible environment related to AI. Today, the company has introduced a new type of technology that allows trigger sounds or voice modification, Fugatto (Foundational Generative Audio Transformer Opus 1), which has a pretty clear goal, “to bring new capabilities to music, video games and everyday people who want to create things”.
We are seeing more and more advances related to artificial intelligence, which is normal given the priority that all companies give to this type of technology, because for many of them it is the future because it makes things easier. But this does not imply that it is something absolutely positive, because as we know, companies that focus so much on their growth have to face various problems, including how they should be used ethically to avoid problems. them, this is one of the main reasons why NVIDIA is not very clear when it will launch its new AI, Fugatto.
An AI that NVIDIA would seek to integrate into many different sectors
The arrival of artificial intelligence has significantly changed the way a large number of people see things, but it is clear that those who have benefited the most from it are large companies, either because they develop hardware for it , or because they manage to make the devices much cheaper. . production costs during their use. But this technology has various applications, and apparently one of the new ones they want to try to implement Nvidia It is linked to the way in which sounds are created or voices are modified, leaving aside synthesizers (and the professionals who know how to use them) to offer a simpler solution through its new AI, Fugatto.
According to Bryan Catanzaro, vice president of applied research in deep learning at the brand, this new artificial intelligence would represent a further step for various sectors, including music and video games. In this case, the difference from other AI is the ability to choose and modify existing audio, for example using a line played on a piano and transforming it into a line sung by a human voice.
“If you think about synthetic audio over the last 50 years, music sounds different today thanks to computers and synthesizers. I think generative AI will bring new capabilities to music, video games, and everyday people who want to create things.
However, as we can imagine, a large number of problems can arise due to generative artificial intelligence capable of reproducing human voices or any type of sound in a generalized way. In this aspect, Nvidia They would be wondering whether or not to present it and when to do so, because they are looking for a way to avoid abuses of the technology that can arise when using it, such as, for example, Deepfakes or that a type of voice is directly generated that might infringe the copyright it is protected by, such as some famous people.
