**A personal note from Rhonda: There has been lots and lots of discussion on social channels about the possibility of AI taking away some of our voiceover work. This is an important discussion, however, THIS webinar is designed to show you what kinds of AI tools are available and the generalities of how they work. Kyle will be sharing information about AI generated synthetic voices and videos so that you can see and hear what’s possible in todays landscape. This is an informational webinar, not a platform to hash everything out. Thanks for your understanding.
