Not What It is
The Osbournes announced the development of an AI avatar of the Prince of Darkness earlier this year
Sharon Osbourne responded to criticism that the development of an AI version of Ozzy Osbourne is about the money. Speaking on the latest episode of The Osbournes podcast, Sharon addressed claims that the family is taking advantage of new technology as a “cash grab.”
On the episode, Sharon and Jack Osbourne described the AI avatar of Ozzy as a technological advancement, noting that if they don’t do it someone else will. Jack added that it’s a “closed AI module” that is not connected to the Internet. “Someone said, ‘It’s dangerous, you can’t control,'” he recounted. “And I was like, ‘What the fuck do you think this? Terminator?’ You think this is going to go sentient and the next thing you know Ozzy is going to launch the nukes?”
He added, “For me, it’s not about pretending he’s still alive.”
