Sepreth(@Sepreth):Microsoft filed a patent application for AI that rewrites what people say during livestreams. The system would flag words based on a viewer’s age, location, or language, swap them in the audio, and generate new frames so the speaker’s mouth matches the change. It can strip filler words, filter profanity, or translate on the fly, with a delay of one to ten seconds. Patenting a way to make someone appear to say things they never actually said is a strange place to land.
