Can New York's mayor speak Mandarin? No, but with AI he's making robocalls in different languages

New York City Mayor Eric Adams has been using artificial intelligence to make robocalls that contort his own voice into several languages he doesn’t actually speak. The mayor told reporters about the robocalls on Monday and said they’ve gone out in languages such as Mandarin and Yiddish to promote city hiring events. They haven’t included any disclosure that he only speaks English or that the calls were generated using artificial intelligence. The calls come as regulators struggle to get a handle on how best to ethically and legally navigate the use of AI.
