This database is also important because of the fact that it marks Google fulfilling a promise that it initially made back when it launched the Google News Initiative. Congress has taken initiative against AI manipulation by false audio recordings, and this has probably contributed to Google taking this problem seriously over the past few months. However, one thing that should be kept in mind is that this database has not been tested yet. It could very well end up failing, but only time will tell whether or not Google has managed to do a good job at preserving the security of users on the internet.
"As we published in our AI Principles last year, we take seriously our responsibility both to engage with the external research community, and to apply strong safety practices to avoid unintended results that create risks of harm.", explained Daisy Stanton, Google AI Software Engineer, in a blog post. Adding further, "We're also firmly committed to Google News Initiative's charter to help journalism thrive in the digital age, and our support for the ASVspoof challenge is an important step along the way."
