How Candidates Could Use AI for Good

Schneier and Sanders argue US candidates should use AI for broad listening and voter engagement, citing Japan's Team Mirai and civic tech tools.

Schneier on Security published an essay arguing candidates in the US midterms could use AI constructively rather than only for deepfakes and one-way messaging. It highlights Japan's Team Mirai party, whose AI interviewer has gathered over 300,000 messages across 16,000 interviews and helped the party win 12 Diet seats. Other cited tools include Scotland-funded CrownShy's Comhairle, deliberation.io, MIT's Cortico, Talk to the City, and Remesh. Higher Ground Labs launched a fund targeting AI-native campaign systems.

Iceland-based Treble raises $18 million for its voice simulation platform

Iceland-based startup Treble raised an $18 million Series A extension to expand its acoustic simulation and synthetic data platform for voice AI companies.

Treble, founded in 2020 by acoustic engineers Finnur Pind and Jesper Pedersen, raised $18 million in a Series A extension led by Paladin Capital Group, bringing total funding above $40 million. The company builds physics-based acoustic simulation for synthetic speech data generation, voice AI model evaluation, and virtual prototyping of headphones, speakers, and smart glasses. Customers include Amazon and Logitech, and it partnered with Hugging Face earlier this year on a benchmark for speech recognition models under realistic conditions.

The 2.5-hour AI-generated Odyssey movie is 2.5 hours too long

AI studio Fountain 0 released the 2.5-hour fully AI-generated film 'Odysseus: The Fall,' which reviewers panned for severe visual and audio consistency failures.

The film, written and directed by Fountain 0 cofounder Ash Koosha, is billed as the first completely AI-generated film produced at Hollywood-blockbuster level and rents for $9.99 via web browser only. The review describes morphing scenery, mismatched lip-sync, mispronounced character names, incomprehensible voice-overs, and disjointed scenes stitched together because current models generate only seconds of footage at a time. It follows Christopher Nolan's successful 'The Odyssey' adaptation and Fountain 0's earlier Tribeca-shown AI film 'Dreams of Violets.'
