    It’s not her, I’ve seen them say as much in previous threads. It’s just some sad dude playing pretend.

    Unfortunately, it has seemed to work. It appears as though we’re not much different than reddit after all.

      FWIW I figure I’d verify and these are the closest they get to saying it outright.

      You guys are laughing right now, but as the only real celebrity on Lemmy, identity theft is not a joke! Millions of celebrities would suffer every year!

      Imagine what would happen if some random Internet weirdo uses AI to impersonate me, super serious Academy Award nominated character actress Margot Robbie, and make me say extremely silly things that I would never say in public on the internet? Would you still think impersonating a celebrity is funny?

      At least they are not doing the Twitter/X thing where they impersonate celebrities to push crypto… yet.

      Lemmy Silver is the only fake Internet money I endorse.

      I’ve never seen anyone trying to impersonate me on Lemmy, but if you ever see them, could you tell them to promote my latest movie, now also available on streaming, since I’m still on strike?

      Erm. You are not planning to impersonate a celebrity to make them say hateful things they would not say, right?

      I think Tortoise is the best open source model, and ElevenLabs is the best closed source one. But you should always be careful and responsible if you are speaking with someone else’s voice.
