2VIEW GALLERY - 2 IMAGESGeorge Carlin, a widely regarded hall-of-fame member of the comedy world, was resurrected in the form of a new comedy special that its creators said was generated by AI. Additionally, the AI voiceover stated, "did my best to imitate his voice, cadence and attitude as well as the subject matter I think would have interested him today". The comedy special, which has since been removed from the Dudsey YouTube channel per the lawsuit's demands, has since been reuploaded to many other YouTube channels. If that is proven to be true, the comedy special would be in full violation of Carlin's copyright. However, Kultgen is now saying the AI was actually him, and the comedy special was "completely written" by him.
