AI Podcast Featuring Michael Parkinson to Launch

News summary

The family of the late Sir Michael Parkinson has approved the creation of an AI replica of the legendary TV presenter to host a podcast titled 'ParVirtually Parkinson', which aims to facilitate unscripted conversations with notable guests. Parkinson's son, Mike Parkinson, emphasizes the ethical approach taken by producers Deep Fusion, ensuring the AI is clearly indicated as an iteration rather than a direct replacement. He noted that his father had expressed interest in a podcast before his passing last year, and this project serves as a tribute to his legacy. The AI will utilize the extensive archive of over 2000 interviews conducted by Parkinson during his career. Mike Parkinson also remarked on the remarkable accuracy of the AI voice technology, which he believes will resonate with both longtime fans and a younger audience. The podcast is slated for release later this year, with the full support of Parkinson's family and estate.
