They are literally used to scam family members, so I assume they are passable. Our local news station demonstrated the exact scam on a high end laptop running a neural net, so I know it's possible.

The ChatGPT-4 OpenAI model can be run locally. You only subscribe if you need the horsepower of the cloud, and lack the needed data. This does not, as far as I am aware.
Regarding the local news station - more likely it was done on a pre-trained model with way more than 25 audio clips. So they would spend hours before hand with a several hours of voice data. And with a single language support for a single person.

Secondly, you cannot run OpenAI chatgpt4 locally. You can train your own model using the same algorithm, but the the data they used for that and fine tuning, to get this result is not a generally accessible information.

There's an open source model llama from meta with the data, but:
1. It is not as good at all
2. You would need a powerful GPU (like A100) and enormous amount of RAM to run the 66bln params version to run it smoothly, and still it's nowhere near the OpenAI ChatGPT4.

Actually, I just googled this and it's ChatGPT3 you can run locally, not 4. That probably changes results somewhat.

The fact is scammers are using this but it may take more effort than I initially thought, thanks for the correction.

ChatGPT3 is before the "revolution". ChatGPT3.5 was a breakthrough and the training data for it is a secret. Thats one of the reasons why Open AI was criticized as they were supposed to be a non-commercial organization.

Every technology can be misused. But as long as the project is within EU jurisdiction, where privacy laws are strict, including the GDPR, it forces organizations to treat the data accordingly.

For me "Eternity.ac" project looks very promising in a way the technologies are used. And if to imagine that at some point GPT-5 is released, they'd just switch to it and clones will sound even more realistic. Even in case it shuts down in a couple of years, you still have your data downloaded and you can theoretically plug it in to another similar application, or combine everything yourself using ChatGPT3 :)

The opposite of this news piece, I guess.

@Konceptz Just like the Expanse series, I started Altered Carbon on TV, then went to the books. I didnt finish the TV series, but I hope they didnt butcher it like they did The Expanse.

Edit fer grahmer
